Ma'am. This entirely. And I say this as the daughter of a man from what was Mobutu's Zaire. When the West finally left after toppling the rightful president, Patrice Lumumba and letting their man Mobutu run roughshod... well let's just say the DRC has still not really recovered. — PolitiTweet.org

What I've learned this week: we as a society are not emotionally prepared for our post-World War II "regular old countryness." Empires are not sustainable. Never have been, never will be. No amount of military might will help you remake societies & cultures that are not your own. — PolitiTweet.org
