One can justify anything when one is in a position of power. Initially they didn't justify their actions, as they became wealthier as a result they became more educated and as a result felt more empathy for their victim. At this point they started to present themselves as having the wellbeing of their colonies at heart describing people as in such ways as the white mans burden etc and inferior or in need of Europe's civilising influence. The USA finally played a large part in breaking up the colonial system because they were unable to profit from the status quo
