And its not just a "recent" list, we've been bullying other countries since the Mexican War and Commodore Perry's intimidation of Japan, and our intervention in the Boxer Rebellion in China. But we started getting into it really in earnest about a hundred and twenty years ago after our empire-building in Cuba, the Philippines and the building of the Panama Canal in what used to be Columbia.

We have always felt it was justified to interfere in other country's civil wars, or even in their politics or elections, because we did it "in order to fight Communism". Of course, it wasn't always about fighting Communism, was it? Mostly it was about securing markets and sources of raw materials, protecting our businesses there and putting some corporate-friendly thug of ours in power.

Hawaii, Asia, Central and South America, the Caribbean.
Iran, S. Vietnam, I could go on, and on and on.

Is it any wonder the rest of the world hates us? You see, its not just that we push little countries around, big countries have always done that. Its that we're such hypocrites about it.
