Yes,America has a military history.
But so do most other nations.
Its just that America having the best weapons and the fact
that they allow the media access to their conflicts makes their
military excursions more public.

Vietnam:-
Northern Vietnam actual started the war against South Vietnam.
Immediately after the Americans failed and pulled out,
the genocide by the invading conquerors began.
Culminating in the killing fields some years later.

Australia was bringing in 70,000 and 80,000 south vietnamese
refugees fleeing for fear of their lives when America lost the fight
and the people of South Vietnam had to flee for their lives.

Blame the North Vietnamese for starting that war, not America.
But I do agree the West should have let the 2sides fight it
out themselves. The death toll of our young soldiers was too high a
price to pay in a foreign war.
Over 50,000 Americans and nearly 500Australians dead.
And a lot of those were conscripted. Forced to go by the government.

Cheerful ,no country comes close to the USA for Military and intelligence suppression.Read the book Confessions of and Economic Hitman by John Perkins. If leaders of poor countries do not take the bribes to sell their countries out, they take assassination in all their most creative forms.
