Encouraging those international bad boys

Uncle Sam approaches Senator William Borah and his followers as his house (U.S.) is seen full of broken windows and other damage. In the foreground, two men (Chinese bandits and Nicaraguan rebels) hold slingshots as a third man (Mexico) encourages them to continue throwing rocks at the house as he states, "go as far as you like, fellers - Borah will protect us."
