Less people are these days. These poeple have been toys of US policy for decades. Sorry, did i say is justified anything? Stop trying to put words into my mouth. its also worth noting that impoverished is a relative term.

Of course a good 'smackdown' will fix it right? Yea, force always works.....
As for cultural stuff, its a symptom of other things.
