You didn't debunk any claim I made in my comment. All the historical episodes I referred to were deluded people coming up with nice-sounding theories on why they deserved to take other people's stuff or force their compliance by force. Each last one ended badly.

There's no need to debunk a gish-gallop. I'd simply make the claim that this poster's views are not reflected by the overwhelming majority of academic historians and foreign policy analysts in any country, certainly not in reductively reducing things to "deluded people". That's more of sign of unserious polemics.
