As for Al Qaeda taken in combat circumstances in Afghanistan,

you mean the "yet another invasion of a sovereign country by us"?

Martin,

Germany and Japan were sovereign countries...

your short 'history' (500 ridiculous years) has more blood on its hands
than many other countries together.

We'd have to go a long way to surpass the 100 million that Europe alone
killed just in the past century.



What about the indigenous populations of the nations prior to the "United
States" on this continent? Probably the American Indian peoples would
disagree that the white population doesn't have lots of blood on it's hands
and that we didn't invade them.

Oh, and don't forget the noble effort to suppress an entire segment of the
American population during the civil war.

Per capita/on average we probably exceeded the 100 million number.

And how about (since we are on the subject) the acts of terrorism
perpetrated against the British Military and resident government by the
American revolutionaries.

I guess it must just be one's point of view ...
