Hall of Shame

[Tichy]

There should be a hall of shame, but only when it's hilarious.

The point should not be to make a blacklist of players, but an ongoing roast of deluded and spectacularly stupid decisions by would-be Gods. And yes, you can nominate yourself.

Real world wise: I operate under the assumption that nations are generally self-interested entities. Gratitude is rarely, if ever, a motivating factor in decision making, and often an apparently principled stand by a state against, for example, American involvement in the middle east has as much to do with outstanding debts and profitable status quos in the region as it does with moral opposition to US policy. That said, when a regime makes decisions that harm its own nation's interests, alienates longstanding allies, fosters strife and misery in the region it is supposedly aiding, and creates a scenario in which retired generals and peace activists agree in their opposition to those decisions, it rightfully loses credibility, whatever your interpretation is of why those decisions were made.
