If you want to talk about killing innocent people, start with the indiscriminate bombings of England by the Germans. We did not start that war, either.

The British planes flew at night, and did not have capability to strike specific targets, so they used area bombing.

The US planes flew during the day, and did have the capability to strike specific targets, which were all military or strategic.

If you want to know about the indiscriminate deaths of civilians, ask the countries which were invaded by the Nazis, especially Poland and Russia, or the countries invaded by the Japanese, especially China. If you knew what happened there, I don't think you'd be pointing the finger at us.

Approximately 20 million Soviet citizens were killed in World War II, of which 7 million were killed in the Ukraine. The vast majority were not Jews.

Against that side of the balance set what? The My Lai massacre?

I am never surprised by anti-US sentiment. I guess if anything I should be surprised that it took a week to start surfacing. I expected it from Yiwu, LLCF, and Mq, but you surprise me.

F* it. If you guys don't like us, ask the Taliban to protect you, or maybe call on Saddam. Yiwu is a good representative of the Chinese people but I think her government is smarter than she is.
