1. the world in this context is actually a relatively small number of economically, politically developed countries, that is the big powers. the rest of us can have an opinion, but nobody gives a shit about it.
2. politics r NEVER about telling the truth, being good or fair. we might think to know whats going on, but we dont, not one bit.
3. since i mentioned power, well holding the power has nothing to do with helping others. whenever they "help" , they actually help themselves into having more power, more influence, more money. the country that gets the "help" is always the one that fits into the political strategy of the helpers. one more reason to understand and believe that we have absolutely no idea why some decisions are made the way they are made.
4. if we wanna simplify it, these conflicts are like fights between 2 brothers. generally they r not twins, one is older, the other younger. if they want to solve it between them, the younger will win only if smarter.
now if a parent steps in, whatever desicion he will make, smbody will be unhappy about it and hold it against him.
PS: just think of all the posts in this forum, where ppl were saying americans should mind their own business instead of interfaring all the time and pose as peacemakers...
