who does that benefit

World is too connected.

why would they do that

Canada is a shitty nation?

Direct imperialism is less profitable than indirect imperialism.

The profit transfer of labor value benefits secondary producers more than primary producers.

Direct imperialism was beneficial during the pre-industrial era because it was all raw resources extraction with very little secondary production.

Good luck.

you keep saying non nuclear nations, like youre talking about africa and less developed countries

but Canada isnt a nuclear nation

South Africa had nuclear weapons until it turned out it was expensive and it hurt relations with other countries which hurt their trade.

or, Canada just hasnt picked a fight with every nation that looks at us

There is a direct correlation between soft power and the profit of exports.

I won't even try to understand that because it's definitely wrong.

That's not what we did lol

Iraq was invaded both times because they threatened regional security and ergo the import of cheap oil. Regional instability means higher import costs. That's why America is deployed fighting Afghanis but not defending the Rohingya people.

was it nuclear weapons? i thought it was nerve gas

America does not give a fuck about any country it invades.

It is never altruistic.

and oil

Iraq was alleged to have nuclear weapons by Israel who justifies their self-importance by claiming they saved America by bombing nuclear facilities in Iraq before the first Iraqi invasion.

not defending anything about Isreal

but that mission was fantastic

As well as other things such as regional support during the Cold War and the humiliation of Britain during the Suez Crisis which put America at the forefront of international prestige.

F-16s went in to bomb the power plant

The mission was fake.

they flew sub 400 AGL the whole way

Israel are Jews. Remember that.

We didn't literally invade to replace the leader lol

say want you want about Isreal, their military is legit

What country did Iraq invade before we invaded them and what was their primary export?

Answer me that please.

A K.

Kuwait's primary export is oil.

Regional stability is in the interest of cheap oil imports for the US.

Basic geopolitics.

You're just shitposting as a crutch for not knowing anything on the subject.

You didn't even know Kuwait started with a K until five seconds ago.

You do this every time.

You're a self-admitted troll and retard. It does not get any more transparent than this.

Well that is blatantly false.
