It's just the usual old American Exceptionalism. They believe they have the 'God given' right to disrupt the economies of other countries, destroy infrastructure, assassinate civilians, fix elections and fund military coups.

The only reason ever given is 'Might is Right'. To be an American patriot is to be a psychopath.
