    Default Force others? Force Us!

    MikeF,

    Perhaps your question:
    Can we really force others to change their ways and transform societies?
    This may need to be changed? I assume your use of 'we' refers to the USA, perhaps with a few other friends.

    It looks very different, especially if you ask Americans and others, when it reads Can others force us to change our ways and transform societies? Somehow I expect those who use R2P rarely consider it being applied to them.

    Under R2P and the UN, WE could be anyone.
