My whole point is as long as there's free trade, there's no war and you counter that with an example of nationalizing industries?

Nobody knows the future. But if the US don't like a certain country, they are always willing to support some chump within the government to overthrow/destabilize it. But the US's enemy in the near future is Iran, Syria and North Korea, not Indonesia.

You mean if the US doesn't like a certain PERSON, they will overthrow him. Sometimes, yes. But all within the laws of economics.
I think in 50 years, North Korea will become what China is today. They've started SOME forms of businesses and perhaps inviting that American orchestra into the country will prove to be another ping-pong-diplomacy.
I'm not too familiar with Iranian politics or economics, but their leader seems like a complete idiot, wouldn't be surprise if their economies fall way behind in the near future.
