William Burton lays out our foreign policy pretty damn clearly. A sample:

So, remember. We don’t want to kill anyone and we’ll try hard not to, but if we have to defend ourselves we will. Don’t think that any bad stuff that may happen is intentional. It’s not. We’re just as likely to fuck up as anyone else, we just do it with bigger ordinance. And if there’s any way to interpret what we say in a way that doesn’t make you angry or sad, that’s the way we meant it. Honest.
We’d also like to apologize for not learning your languages. We bought the tapes and have been meaning to get around to it, but the game was on and a friend came over with some beer. Next thing we knew it was 3am and we were on our way to Padre. You know how it is.
