Can't be very successful if people endlessly rant against the US.
I've had former close friends attempt to sabotage me in my early career as well, for a multitude of reasons, but the most apparent to me was jealousy. How much of the world do you think operates in a similar way? I would bet a very significant portion does, maybe even a majority if I were at my most cynical years.
There's been no stop to the US war machine, they're 100% succesfull.
But again, this was about psy-oping the US actions, which as your post shows isn't terribly effective.
