Economics

The USA has long loved dictators that benefit its corporate interests around the world. Often, these men are used until their purpose expires. They are then discarded in favor of newer and better puppets, i.e., the old puppet either wears out or he becomes so embarrassingly corrupt he must be discarded in the face of international scrutiny.

A shortage of would-be dictators doesn't exist, so it is always easy to find a replacement.

It is important to remember that since the colonization of North America by Europeans hundreds of years ago, the purpose of engaging tyrants on the side of Christendom and burgeoning capitalism has been to steal resources (minerals, oil, gas, waterways, land, etc.) from the poor. The rich then hoard the resources and make everybody else buy theirs, insuring exorbitant profits.

Over the years many thieves have conspired to maintain the system, which aligns friendly dictators with US economic policy.

Fascinating, isn't it?
