state did this for centuries or longer btw. they create violence/war in some area of the planet, then offer to "fix it".

you can just say "Society"; it's bizarre people think there's some magic to governance that's above in beyond people forming groups and rules.

Depends on how democratic the Society is. The less so, the more it's a powerful minority at the top. How much say did the average US citizen have in starting this war with Iran? It's not something the current administration ran on to get elected. It's not very popular in the polling.
