Must of been the Communist hoards back then too; it certainly was not our business interests. ALL absolutely no right to complain about Hitler, or the Japanese "inroads into Manchuria" (as their history books still so antiseptically phrase it), or about Stalin and the Soviet police state, with its decades-long quasi-religious attempt to foment worldwide instability as the first giant step into the glorious Worker's State of the future, or Mao and the "Cultural Revolution" and the millions murdered and starved, all of this while we struggled for our lives with one hand against these raging madmen and murderers, while building with the other a sphere of peace and prosperity, built upon law, fundamental human rights, free elections, and self-goverment. Pax Americana and compare it with what might have been , and what has been throughout human history, even into the present.
