Can people be killed by using high pressure water and shooting it at someone? Is water a chemical? Is using water chemical warfare? America "sticking" its nose in places could be interpreted as a type of colonialism. Classify Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan in what you would consider 1, 2 or 3 world countries.

Don’t make me lose IQ points over this. Using water is not chemical warfare. I don’t know why your mind even wants to conflate the two. All the pressure the US or any other state exerts still does not qualify as colonialism. You might make a case for regime capture, or a puppet state/satellite. Cold War classification isn’t useful today. It’s easy to picture what people mean by “first world” and “third world,” but you’re better off looking up the economic indicators you actually are actually interested in.
