As to puppetmaster, better to attempt that than be the puppet. Or the patsy.People don't like to be considered puppets (or patsies for that matter), which is why a foreign power trying to act as puppetmaster over a people's situation tends to greatly irritate the people. The penalty for failure at trying to be puppetmaster is extremely high, and with the situation so unstable, the gains are dubious. I can see the wisdom of letting it shake itself out for the most part, but not completely being out of the picture (a "casual" reminder that we supply billions to them helps to jog their memory). |
