Iraq and Afghanistan... first gulf war Iraq fucked around and found out... Second time the USA got angry and then kind of forgot what was going on for a decade. We are pretty bad at the occupy and imperialism thing.
Afghanistan was dumb the USA could of genocided the people but spent trillions trying to spread liberal democratic ideas to people who didn't care. I guess that's imperialism?
Real imperialists would still be occupying them and purged the population not wasted trillions of dollars to try to make them more liberal then left...
