I've got to agree with a lot of those points. We have a terrible record of human rights violations, supporting human rights violators, and corruption of governments in the mid-East, Central, and South America.
And we have the nerve to lecture the world on freedom, democracy, and human rights?
This is nothing new, and this is why dumb Americans upset me. I'm in the military, and trust me when I say there's a lot of idiots out there that think America is the cool kid in high school or something.
After the war, Winston Churchill said that if he had read Mein Kampf before the war, he would have supported Hitler.
If you have a reference for this "Quote" then let's have it cause I'm calling it BS. Churchill hated the Nazis and everything they stood for. Unlike a lot of other political leaders of the time that saw some good things about Hitler and his programmes, Churchill was TOTALLY opposed to them right from the start. This opposition put Churchill in political oblivion for many years until other people began to wake up.
I must also add that FDR also knew the Nazis for what they were right from the get go unlike most of the American right wing of the time that wished they could import many of those ideas to the USA.

1. FDR also sold Eastern Europe down the river at Yalta, consigning generations of East Germans, Czechs, Poles, Rumanians, Bulgarians, Albanians and Yugoslavs to virtual slavery, and the American left wing of the time thought that was okeydoke.
2. There were as many if not more "right-wing" than "left-wing" GIs who laid down their lives to defeat the Nazis and Imperial Japan.
If you're going to be forced to "add things", try to show a little intellectual honesty instead of wholesaling unsubstantiated half-truths...

Yes, while we continue to loose ours...right here at home.
