One of the most terrifying things about the men who want to destroy the world is how little they know about it. For them, everything is simple, with the world neatly divided into heroes and villains. The United States, naturally, is a shining hero on the world stage, wielding its might to spread freedom or whatever. Meanwhile, countries like Iran are cartoon supervillains, just hellbent on destruction.
The unfortunate truth is that the countries on Trump’s hit list have very good historical reasons for hating America. You don’t even have to look back too far to find an instance where the CIA has deposed their government, their natural resources have been plundered, or their charismatic political leaders assassinated.
