Leaving what sources exactly? Maybe conversations with those maimed and wounded by American bombs dumped over Laos and Cambodia. Those that died at the hands of the US supported Khmer Rouge. Photos of the atrocities committed in Vietnam.
I'd rather believe a war veteran than a reporter any day.

You know, this is starting to get boring now.
You keep saying the same stuff over and over again that you read in a book once that was written buy an American who didn't enjoy himself.
Loads of people who actually live in Europe now tell you that what you believe is not actually the truth.
You take no notice.
What is your problem?

America's place is not to be sorry. Innocent lives have been lost since the beginning of time, and will continue to do so until death itself can be stopped.
Ask the people of Kuwait if America hasn't made the world a better place.
