And therefor, the simple conclusion is - the government that governs best
is the government that governs least.

Poor victimized Diego, don't you know that the Government can at best only
be as good as the governed.

Definitely. But the British no longer need to teach this gentlemanly
traits to the new Superpower. Sometimes they are a tad too brisk,
one has to admit, but they improve constantly.
Take for instance the celebrated former Secretary of State Henry
Kissinger. We all remember his "green light" to the "Operación
Cóndor", which decimated a whole generation in Latin America
during the late seventies. The U. S. Government, fully aware that
torture chambers were being used in my country, supported the
policy of indiscriminate assassination. Over 30.000 people were
killed, babies were robbed from imprisoned mothers, and bodies
were dropped from planes into the river. U. S. Generals instructed
our local military Juntas in the doctrine of domestic security. In
West Point they still remember our local dictator J. C. Onganía's
speech about ideological frontiers.
Recently revealed official records show the tact and deference of
Mr. Kissinger speaking about State terrorism:
"Covert action should not be confused with missionary work," he
once said.
Charming.
Saludos,
Diego D.
