You're right, the world should've put up sanctions against the USA and their allies. My country may be an ally of the USA, as far as the USA even has allies, but that doesn't excuse their invasion of the Middle East. Had they gone after the key players in the 9/11 attacks then I might have given them the benefit of the doubt but they suddenly didn't care about Saudi Arabia. The world should also move away from its dependency on the US Dollar for buying and selling oil as much as it should move away from rubles.

It's sad that the same politicians that se being spied on by the CIA refuse to move towards more independence from the American sphere of influence. Luckily, the USA is great at electing complete baboons into office, helping the rest of the world find reasons to seek independence and sever close ties in critical areas.
