There is absolutely no reason for USA to meddle in the affairs of wiz.. er, other countries. They would not have needed tow worry about the missiles if they hadn't meddled already.

American bombings, by date. Some countries bombed twice, thus counted twice.

 

 

Looking at the list of 26 countries then, 13 are a republic or some

functioning.  It would depend upon subjective criteria.  Here is the

list of 26 countries, duplicate entries removed:

 

China (Communist)

Korea (North Korea, authoritarian socialist dictatorship; South Korea,

Republic)

Cuba (Communist)

Belgian Congo (dictatorship, transitional)

Laos (Communist)

Vietnam (Communist)

Libya (military dictatorship, or local council government

"Jamahiriya")

Iran (theocratic republic, theocracy)

Kuwait (constitutional monarchy)
