America purports to be a shining city on a hill, a beacon of democracy, the best hope for mankind.
Are we really? Or are we just exploiting “the wretched of the earth” to enhance corporate profits? Our CIA regularly engages in clandestine operations, assassinations, disinformation campaigns, election fixing, secret wars, and false flags. We have 800 foreign military bases. The U.S. has killed more than 20 million people in 37 “victim nations” since World War II. Since 1945, our government has perpetrated 297 invasions and at least 60 coups.
We will look at the dark side of American foreign policy and ask if it is unpatriotic to criticize it.
Diverse opinions and polite debate are welcome.
