I know it's completely different, but was anyone else reminded of some of the U.S. stabilization policy post-World War II? Of course the goals and intention are very different and unique... but after just having read about stabilizing war torn nations after World War II (to prevent the spread of communism, etc), it seemed relevant to wonder what all the goals and intentions are this time around. Maybe this is reading into it too much and maybe both times the U.S. did have the best interest of the other countries in mind (as defined by the U.S.) but it will be interesting to find out what happens with this policy. Hopefully it will more successful for the countries the U.S. is trying to help than the policies that fought the leftwing uprisings in Greece.
