Try decorated soldiers and pilots. You, on the other hand, sit in your comfy chair and pass judgement.
They as in who? The Feds? Who do you think will be managing the peacekeeping?
He's not entirely wrong. Iran is/was a prime example of what he's talking about. Previous to the Shah being installed by the US, Iran held a free and fair election. Their choice was someone who wanted to nationalize Iran's oil fields. This didn't sit well with the US (or Britain) so the US deposed the democratically elected leader and installed their own puppet.
This is something that the US has repeated in several countries since WW2. The US is a country that yaps on about the right to self-determination. However they only believe in it as long as that self-determination is in America's best interest.
And let's face it, most of the mess in the Middle East can be blamed squarely on American Middle East policy, which basically went along the lines of, "It ain't their oil, they're just closer to it."

A: Because there’s no American embassy there.
Maybe try and go back further , maybe to the Balfour decision , and you could go back even further all the way to the birth of Islam .
