You forgot about a ton of European atrocities, especially during colonialism. In the end, I think Europe would probably be bankrupt from paying everyone that they have caused immeasurable harm to. Fortunately for some, this is a ridiculous idea.
Considering that the US is so much younger, give it time, i am sure you will catch up.
It's possible, but not likely. The US as a superpower has been far more responsible than European superpowers. Has it done idiotic and horrible things? Sure. However, never on the scale of what European powers have done.
No, I don't think anyone will ever come near the atrocities that Europe has done. A lot of these atrocities were even happening when the US already existed.
LOL, yeah, right, give it as much time as Europe has had, then well talk.
We would be long gone by then, but let me ask you, what is it with this Euro bashing, if i, as a semitic with a jewish heritage can return to Germany, WFT are you using my ancestors to bash people like ME?
YES we wanted vengance for the WTC, we were a one world nation back then, but now, because we didn't want soldiers risking their lives in a meaningless war against nothing, we are suddenly your enemies?
I will fight to death for what i believe in, freedom, democracy and the ones i love, but i won't fight for nothing.
Afghanistan was my last mission as a NATO officer, now they can cancel NATO altogether, it is torn apart by the "uniter"
