When nation building policymakers at the United Nations and a large countries such as the United States of America need to be cognizant of the fact that their abilities may be limited by many factors that they have not considered. One thing we should understand is that the powers that be in any tribal situation, dictatorship or even a country run amuck with organized crime may not actually want to rebuild their nation in our vision of what the nation should be.

Now then, for philosophical arguments I would like to bring up the point of an alcoholic; their loved ones around them obviously want to help them so they can live a normal and better life. But so often the alcoholic is either in denial or does not want to help and thus if you help someone against their will you will not be able to change them and may I had only a fool would try.

It is for this reason that I believe that policymakers and diplomats around the world and at the United Nations and even in our own government in the United States of America need to realize the limits of our abilities to fix problems in the world through nation building and government structure assistance. There needs to be a reality check rather than wasting money and then throwing more money at the problem only to fail in the end and piss off those who you are trying to help. Consider this in 2006.
