    Oh I totally agree. It's a fascinating look into the mechanisms of US imperialism. But I can't believe that there isn't way, way more to the story than author's narrative of going from a master of seizing poor countries by the balls, to SUDDENLY realizing that, "hey, am I the the baddie?"

    Though I haven't finished the book yet. Maybe it will come later.

      It does a little bit - he talks about his daughter, if I'm not mistaken, and her making him feel guilty. Something of the sort.
