Just adding more and more clauses until maybe arguably the US (only its clandestine services and a few dozen of its proxies) didn't brake the "rule" with no consequence since this is just a fiction to mask pure power projection.

    If that persons' username is a nod to The Clash's Joe Strummer, I think the real one would be rolling in his grave. I'm kinda confused though, at first it seems like the podcast person is agreeing with you? Or were they saying "that was against the rules therefore the US didn't do it"

      That poster was good. They clarified that the US doesn't need territory, it just needs financial dependants.
