There is so much that is naive/factually wrong with what you say that it's ridiculous. Every country works with/against other countries to get the most benefit. Many times the USA has gone above and beyond this criteria to
help many others when we really did not have to.
It took the USA to go into the Balkans to stop genocide (to help Muslims I must add)-where were all the "smart/great/caring" Europeans. Same thing as Darfur-no one is willing to get involved until it turns out to be the USA. Even in Afghanistan it's nearly impossible to get the required help from certain members of NATO. Our next Presidential election will show you what will happen in a World where the USA turns again to isolationism. As a so-called Superpower I think we have been relatively behaved when compared to any other like-sized country/empire. I
