We have to look out for American interests first, the same way France has to look out for herself, and Germany, and Russia, Britain, etc.
All about what's convenient for them, or us.
It's why the allies of 20 years ago-- Iraq, Afghanistan-- are the enemies we face today... and the enemies of 20-some odd years ago (like Russia) are our closest allies today. Times change, situations change, interests and needs on our part change. Such is life and politics.
(And nice to see ya too, Jim-Jim).
