various assassinations, the brink of nuclear apocalypse, an unpopular political war away from home that caused a social movement, and political espionage.

It’s like we’re cursed.

    So if you notice that we bombed Iran this week, you must find it the most important bombing? I truly don’t get how some people’s hobby is to shit on the US

        Because the time the world has existed includes times other than this week. And other countries.

              Literally a way to get rid of hungry mouths post-Depression, and wars the US didnt even want to be part of until they were attacked. Russia defeated Germany but the US took credit for it.

            So… your point is that we are the only country of concern “because we have never been the good guy”?

                  My point was NEVER “we are the only country of concern.” That was a cheap MAGAt-style straw man argument. That makes him a liar. He’s welcome to try again.

                    except you said “why wouldn’t it be” referring to me saying “why would it be”. so great job calling me a liar and all, but all that actually happened was you misunderstood then got mad about it
