Where in this article is the acknowledgement that none of this would have happened without America?

Hachim Shahir, an 83-year-old bricklayer standing in line for hours to vote, was asked how it had been possible for somebody like him to arrive at such a late stage in life without ever having voted, and now finally to have cast a ballot. He thought for a long while, then answered: "America - it was America that did it." And how did he feel about that? "America will be good if it completes what it came here to do, to bring us democracy, and then it goes home," Mr. Shahir said. "The main thing now is that they keep their promises, and leave. Personally, I believe they will do it."

And I'll go back to the first part of my question - "Where in this article?" - where in this case was at the very end, typical of the Slimes. Downplay at the beginning, belittle in the middle, and if you must praise, praise at the end.
