Let's try this... can you assert that America has NOT committed crimes against other countries? Can you prove that we didn't invade other countries that posed no threat, that we didn't depose the duly elected leader of Iran hence giving rise to Islamic radicalism there, that we didn't overturn elections when the result wasn't to our liking, that our corporations didn't help to destroy the economies of other countries, that our troops didn't torture people at the bequest of our military and government leaders? I'm not happy with the answers I've researched and I'm ashamed that my country would do such things, but to throw 100% of the blame onto others shows a complete understanding of how the world works. America can be great, but it isn't and it won't be if it refuses to address the truth. It's not a one-way street.
What happens to the guy who claims he's #1? He gets shot down. And it's his fault every time.
Dude, you made an assertion about "crimes". Don't weazle your way out and ask about what's NOT happened. Jeeez. In America that's what we called being chicken(manure). Put another way, evading the question.
I can think of one country the U.S. has invaded that posed no threat - Iraq.
Pretty pitiful that someone has to politicize the deaths of 3000 Americans in order to try and excuse the illegal, immoral (and completely unjustified in world opinion) the invasion and ongoing occupation of Iraq.
The fascists want to pretend Saddam Hussein attacked us on 9/11, it is scary of what they think about the current Preident. Death threats against him have skyrocketed. There are some real sick people in this country

The reason you have no answer, you have no clue.
Uh, the Philippines and Okinawa were controlled by a nation that attacked us. The 9/11 attacks were by an organization that operates in more than 40 countries, NOT by a nation/state.
It's you that's clueless about our alleged retaliation against those who attacked us. Perhaps someday you'll learn to distinguish apples from oranges. At this point? Total fail.

A better question is why we stole the Phillipines and Hawaii from the rightful inhabitants to begin with. Had we not, we would've done the right thing and avoided the war into the bargain.
