What shit (idiot)?Are the Brits somehow responsible for the shit we did post WW2? Or are as Americans "grown enough" to own our mistakes?
FYI. All the people who made the mistakes you are talking about with regard to the Brits are also long dead.....
First, the USA ended that war, started by the Europeans (a second time), with a lot of our blood and treasure. For that matter, our "Allies" were able to do more on their part from all the Lend-Lease we provided. USSR would have lost to Nazi Germany were it not for the huge amounts of Lend-Lease we sent them.
As for post WW2, the USA had the Marshall Plan and extensive foreign aid afterward to rebuild the destruction of the world resulted from that war.
I don't recall USSR, or PRChina a few years later doing anything similar, especially outside of their "iron curtains".
Most of the conflicts post WW@ are in the former colonies of the Europeans and other nations that were mismanaged and then released without adequate preparation for independence. With weaknesses that International Communism, via USSR, PRChina, and their proxies took advantage of in their quest to convert all our world to the joys and wonders of their version of socialism.
BTW, there was this thing known as the Cold War where the USA was the only nation with resources and power to block the efforts and threats from the USSR and later, also PRChina. I'd suggest you find some of those who were former residents under Soviet/Communist rule and find out how much they enjoyed such.
Yes there have been some mistakes and flubs in foreign policy and actions of the USA since then, but anyone who has ever tried or done something will know there isn't always a 100% success rate.
Only those who haven't or couldn't do anything positive and successful themselves will look at the fails of others while notice the biggest FAIL in their own lives = having never tried doing anything useful and positive, have setbacks at times and learn from.
You talk here like one of those do-nothing deadwood failures in life looking for the faults of others in order not to face and deal with your own faults and failures.
BTW-2; All those people who did the slavery thing are also long dead (5-6+ generations or more) and gone yet we still have greedy idiots claiming THEY deserve 'reparations' for deeds long past. Bit of hypocrisy, wouldn't you agree.
