i dont think that we do. be shouldnt be getting into other peoples business they came up with there own gov. let them run it. and if they have a problem we should let them duke it out for themselves and work through it. its there problem not ours. when we should get involved and encourage others to help is when they start becoming a threat to us and other nations. if they become a world threat we should all EVERYONE other nations warn them to stop whatever the heck they are doing or we will all come down on them and crash there little party. and if that doesnt work and they ignore everyone then we follow through. i dont think that if some one starts having a problem we should rush in like superman and save the day.
