Well, I think the point is that when they 'guide global interest', they do it in such as way as to ensure that the US remains top dog economically and politically. This means finding ways to subjugate other countries economies to the benefit of the US. Do many nations practise this? Sure. Is it 'right' because of that? I don't think so. The US has a responsibility as 'global big brother' to ensure trade practises and military incursions are fair and justified (I'd like to think... maybe they have no responsibility to anyone but themselves...). There is a price to be paid for the foreign policies the US espouses, and their reaping that reward now in a brutally poor world image.
