About This Quote
When the late Christopher Hitchens said, “So, Americans, then. Self-appointed vigilante defenders of the world, kind of like Superman, if Superman was retarded and only fought crime when he felt like it.” he was expressing his feelings of disdain for America's role in the world. He thought that demand for American intervention in faraway countries, based on their own notions of what is good for their country, is absurd. He believed that Americans should not be asking for orders from anyone else but instead should determine their own foreign policy based on what they see as best for themselves.
