Since the 1600’s America has not had one year of peace, on it’s own soil or in foreign lands but the Government would have you believe that it’s all the bad bad people from a far away land that is the root cause of all “evil” in this country.
This is a “short list”
In other words I got tired of looking for more wars, invasions, campaigns, annexations, raids, sieges, battles, expeditions, bombings, plots, shootouts, riots, stand-offs, rebellions, incidents, crisis, peacekeeping missions, massacres, bombardments, internments, genocides, parties, captures, rebellions, killings, & covert projects.
And we have the nerve to call anyone a warmonger?
