I agree completely with you about Iraq and the role of Halliburton and Blackwater.
I even agree with to some extent with Afghanistan and propping up the current corrupt regime.
Where I think the US can be most successful is along the model of Bosnia and now Libya, as part of a broad coalition and with a self-limiting role to protect civilians and/or support popular movements against oppressive governments but not to the extent of invading and occupying.
