Do you not agree when it comes to genocide that we are in the top 5 or 10? The wiping out of the native americans WAS genocide, no way around that fact....
So I guess your argument is it wasnt the biggest genocide so we are still just peachy keen, and still have moral authority.
we wiped out more indians than the nazis killed jews, does the fact that stalin killed more humans make it ok? If you want to quibble over numbers then you have clearly lost your mind- genocide is genocide...
I write this in hawaii, another place where a native population was wiped out...(U.S. Partly responsible).
so whats the point, Tom? All you can argue is the genocide we committed wasnt the worst one ever... I will maybe grant you that... but when you have to stoop to that level of self defense, ie "yeah we did something evil, but THEY did something a little more evil " doesnt it make you feel a little sick?
And while we are at it how about slavery? America embraced that more than any other country...
Good thing we define what constitutes 'moral authority', too bad the rest of the world sees through that lie...
