I am firmly in the camp of Butt Out. I cannot think of one incident where out intervention, whatever the reason, made things better for the indigenous average person. And when we Should have stepped in, as for example against the Khmer Rouge, we did not...nor into WWII, for that matter, before millions of Jew, gays, Catholics, Gypsies, handicapped people etc were tortured & slaughtered. Which in my lifetime is where this idea that we should and must intervene started......a necessary war against Hitler turned into "oh, let's be do-gooders" with poor understanding, worse information, and questionable motives. And then the profit motive showed up....... I firmly believe that people in any given area must decide what they want for themselves, and get it themselves, or it will not be sustainable anyway.
