No ‘noble cause,’ US foreign policy is ‘fundamentally imperialistic’
The United States interventions in other countries are based on no “noble cause” as Washington wants the public to assume since the country’s foreign policy is “fundamentally imperialistic” and meant to impoverish resourceful nations, an analyst says.
Interventions in Syria, Iraq, Libya and elsewhere have been “a major catastrophe for the people of those countries,” said Brian Becker with the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition in an interview with Press TV on Monday.
He was commenting on remarks by former congressman Ron Paul, arguing that US involvement in international issues does not solve but rather perpetuates them.
“Non-intervention in the affairs of others does not damage US credibility overseas. It is US meddling, bombing, droning, and regime-changing that damages our credibility overseas,” Paul wrote in an article released on the website of the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity earlier in the day.
Becker echoed his remarks, indicating that the US intervention is synonymous with “destabilization, fragmenting and fracturing” of a country, “contributing to regional instability.”
“The US military intervention always assigns to itself in the public eye a noble cause to protect civilians, overthrow a dictatorship, promote democracy, stop terrorism or in other words noble goals,” said the Washington-based analyst. “The US intervenes in the resource-rich and geo-strategically important countries not to help, not to solve problems but to dominate.”
The domination efforts lead to “huge human suffering in the targeted country,” apart from destabilizing the country and the region.
