Oh, BTW Jim Carroll: A big thank you for completing Steve Shaw's point. Earlier in this thread he posted without linking to the site what was basically an accusation that the United States had killed millions of people over the years in many wars. It was a large number of millions akin to the kind of death rate the Soviets in Russia and the Chinese Communists under Mao imposed on their own people via starvation and 're-education'. When I noticed that part of the deaths attributed to the United States were actually done by the Khmer Rouge on their own people (and I consider that genocide), Steve acted all innocent 'who me? I didn't mean that!' But in fact you Jim have provided a link to the same source as what Steve was quoting and in a different article they no-doubt-about-it accuse the U.S. of multiple genocides. Game. Set. Match. Thanks for the help, Jim!
