Would it not be the equivalent of a what supremacist gang get into the army and get trained and do a couple tours here and there. Comeback home and all go to Canada and pull off a deadly attack? Should the US be blamed for training the group that messed up Canada? Or does the US get a pass because we are a hegemony?
Not picking a fight but if that’s true then shouldn’t the equivalent be given to the US? Or other countries?
To the rest of the world, it is looked at that way. The only reason the US doesn’t consider their crimes “Their Fault” is the general sense of “American Exceptionalism” that saturates their cultural perception. You think the rest of the world doesn’t remember Haiti? Or Guatemala? Or the Philippines? Or the Alaskan Panhandle Incident? Do you think we’ve forgiven China for Tibet or the Uyghur genocide in Turkmenistan? Or Canada and Australia for their Genocides? The Germans still walk around starting every conversation with outsiders saying “Hi, yes I’m German, and we’re very sorry.” or something equivalent.
