So many terrible things have happened in the past century due to Western Interventionism. The western society in large glorifies the progress due to these interventions, but not the far-spreading chaos and destruction they sowed.
Until the Western society in large (and by extension, their representatives in government) and the civil servants acknowledge this simple truth and work towards reconciliation, the wars and chaos and conflicts will only increase, not decrease.

These seeds of the present were definitely sown in the past.
We very much should not have defended British Petroleum (BP) in this way.
Venezuela was allowed to nationalize similar assets, with consequences. Iran should have been permitted to do the same.
