Look at my screen name and tell me the United States hasn't done the same fucking thing.

As a matter of fact, look at your first three bullet points and tell me they don't apply to the United States.

You slay me, you really do.

and the USSR (and imperial Russia, which it suceeded) was much worse to its indigenous peoples than America; ever heard of the indigenous siberians?

is a pathetic excuse

Thus, according to Ward Churchill, a professor of ethnic studies at the University of Colorado, the reduction of the North American Indian population from an estimated 12 million in 1500 to barely 237,000 in 1900 represents a"vast genocide . . . , the most sustained on record." By the end of the 19th century, writes David E. Stannard, a historian at the University of Hawaii, native Americans had undergone the"worst human holocaust the world had ever witnessed, roaring across two continents non-stop for four centuries and consuming the lives of countless tens of millions of people." In the judgment of Lenore A. Stiffarm and Phil Lane, Jr.,"there can be no more monumental example of sustained genocide—certainly none involving a 'race' of people as broad and complex as this—anywhere in the annals of human history."

agrees with you

for that complete nonsense about Sanders supporting the USSR against America. Lol

fail

That's an interesting kind of morality. Thanks for sharing.

etc. being far worse? Castro is among their ranks.

I love, by the way, that you're defending Reagan's Latin America policy. I think that is really, really special. Next, tell us about how the School of the Americas graduates are actually human rights workers.

Perhaps you could also revisit Batista, while you're on the subject of Castro, and tell us what a benevolent, democratic leader he was. Or perhaps Pinochet. Or Castillo. Or Somoza. Or Mont. "Papa Doc" Duvalier. Or Banzer. Or the junta that replaced Bosch. Or the junta installed in Ecuador. Or Branco. And that's just Latin America. Should we talk about Suharto? Seko? The Shah?

to hold onto American hostages until after the election, he could sell the Iranians weapons to fund a black ops program to over throw the democratically elected Nicaruigan government. Then that's what will solve our problems.

And now they're our trading partners.

but Vietnam doesn't cancel out the cold hard facts (pun intended) listed in the body of the diary.

Why do your thinik Iran hates us so much? Why do you think that much of the "Thiord World" hates us so much.

Much of it was/is residue of what we did with that philosophy.

The lie that Sanders supported the USSR is not going to fly. You fanatics need to quit borrowing republican tactics.

Remember how "draft dodger" Bill Clinton went to the USSR during Viet Nam when he was in college? Does that mean he's a dirty red too? And if so, Hillary must be a communist plant since she married commie Bill.

and actively supporting the USSR's Cold War combatants like Bernie Sanders did. A monster difference.

You sound like a Reagan supporter. Perhaps you were. You are definitely on the right wing of the Democratic party. Your brand of nonsense won't fly.

I support the environment, an active government role in the economy, abortion rights (and I believe under contractions begin it must be legal, which puts me to the left of many Democrats), and LGB rights.

Foreign policy is not a place for left/right. It's a place for correct/incorrect.

I have the dolphins and the deterrent patrol pin to prove it.

Unless you have hard evidence, you sir need to simply fuck off.
