A lot of the problems we run into time and time again might be avoidable if we remembered that, most of the time, the enemy of our enemy is just as much of a bastard as the original enemy.

The US have been in an armed conflict against ISIS, who grew out of the activities of al-Qaeda in postwar Iraq and are now fighting in Syria in what is at minimum a three-sided war, in which the US opposes a regime it previously supported and then tried to support the enemies of, but it turned out that some of the enemy regime’s enemies were also friends with ISIS, who are the enemies of both the US and the US’s enemies, although some other friends are enemies of both—oh, and Russia’s fighting there, too, just for old times’ sake.

The US have also been involved in an armed conflict against Iraq, a country they had previously supported because they were fighting Iran, a country that opposed the US on the grounds that the US had supported Iran’s previous dictatorship, because they, too, opposed the Soviets.

In only the last few decades, the US has been involved in an armed conflict against al-Qaeda, which emerged from the mujahideen in Afghanistan, a group the US had previously supported on the grounds that they were fighting the Soviets. (I strongly recommend watching the 1987 James Bond film The Living Daylights if you’re a big fan of shouting, “OH WOW THAT DID NOT AGE WELL” at your screen. Bond teams up with the mujahideen, who are led by a charming, heroic character best described as “suave bin Laden with a posh English accent.” Good theme song, though.)

1) It is a good idea to trust people.
2) But not too much!
The companies often acted like states in their own right, and wielded incredible influence over the government of their own countries.
