"Ireland, that has wronged no man, has injured no land, that has sought no dominion over others" you compare us to Imperialist like you and the Concert of Europe countries? bah!
The srd world only applies to the cold war period but let's just take it as the developing world in general. You'll notice I said HELPED create, not created single-handedly. Truth be told the biggest bastards of the lot are the Genocidal Belgians.
But I digress, the fact is that the United States has caused a very signifcant ammount of damage to developing countries and countries with resources. I'm not blaming America 100%, I'm saying that overall you haven't been a force for good in the world, netiher has Britain,Russia,France,Spain,Portugal,Germany,Japan,China,South Africa,Rhodesia,Israel,Iran and so on. There are two types of countries occupiers and the occupied, I live in the later type of country and to me your actions are abhorrent.
