It almost makes you think he wanted to inform the public so they could intelligently decide whether or not to support foreign policies.

Doesn't he know that we are spreading democracy and human rights and fighting terror by killing people in the Middle East and only incidentally helping the oil companies dictate their terms with those countries after we kill off those with the gall to think they own their own natural resources?
