For the record, in its foreign policy, America has never carried the flag of freedom and liberty except as propaganda. America happily makes common cause with brutal dictatorships. China, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia come to mind. If you recall, Saudi Arabia was the country of origin of the 9/11 hijackers, not Iraq. Pakistan is giving safe-haven to the Taliban and has perpetrated the spread of WMD.

Even domestically, it's doubtful whether America "carries the flag of freedom and liberty."
