The USA, our goverment are the BIGGEST assholes on the planet.
If you honestly believe that, then you seriously need to get out more.
If you believe that, look at why the Iraq war was started.
We aren't the only nation in the world that's started a war. Let's look at a few other examples:
Hamas - exists solely to destroy Israel
Nazi Germany - We all know this one
Soviet Union - Even more expansionist than the above
China - Executes its own citizens merely for an opinion contrary to the government's
Iran - Same as the above, except worse
Various African groups - Just look at how many genocides have occurred there.
And finally, there was Iraq - Responsible for mass genocide and featured the same government brutality of the above. Now, maybe the war was wrong, but losing that government definitely didn't hurt anyone.
Either way, no other country does as many humanitarian efforts as the United States. Honestly, yes, maybe we have acted like assholes in the past but we are definitely not the biggest ones out there.
