One of the most divisive issues in US politics is foreign policy. America’s military and diplomatic involvement since World War II has left profound changes around the world.

For many, this has meant chaos and violence. But for Jayant Bhandari, the world should be more thankful of US peace-keeping efforts. An Indian engineer, political analyst, and investor in natural resources, he believes that in many parts of the world, US intervention has prevented bloodshed.

Nevertheless, the United States has embarked on an impossible mission to change cultures so different, he argues, and she should start pulling out of those countries where repercussions are unlikely to affect US interests.
