These people don't care what happened during the Cuban missile crisis, the lies about WMD's, the Bay of Tonkin Incident, or the many warnings Russia gave NATO about inducting the Ukraine(since 2008). Or, even the truth about why the US dropped the bombs over Japan(I also think they did it to let Russia know that they will use nuclear bombs)."
That certainly paints a bleak picture of the US's performance on the world stage. However, I have a small quibble with
"These people".
Maybe it might have been better to say
successive administrations and/or right wing/nationalist shits
LOL

instead . There were and are a lot of people in the US who were and are opposed to these actions.
I thought I had preferenced and defined "These people", in the first paragraph,
"
Unfortunately(especially in the US), for decades MOST people have been conditioned and indoctrinated into believing that Russia is just an evil threat to humanity(like N. Korea). This is how the media portrays these nations, and the gullible sheeples mindlessly laps it up. These people believe, that it is manifest destiny that makes America the world's police and moral compass. It doesn't matter how many innocent must die in making the world in the image of White America.".
This train of thought was continued into the next paragraph. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that ALL Americans are gullible sheeples, mindlessly lapping up whatever the media tells them. I should have made this more clearer.
However, the direction of the US administration has been the same since "Ike's" warnings about the MIC. From the FIA released documents, the imperatives of the US are its sovereignty, its security, and its economic world position/dominance. It didn't matter what administration was in power. All administrations since "Ike", either inherited military actions or created new military actions.
Regardless, America's performance on the world's stage
is more than just bleak. It is criminal! It runs the gamut from illegal invasions and occupations, killing more innocent people than combatants, supporting and arming terrorist, election interference, illegal electronic and satellite surveillances, financing and arming coups, stealing or controlling other countries' natural resources, changing regimes with puppet-heads, reneging on promises and treaty agreements, abandoning countries supporting them, sanctioning countries that don't play ball, blatantly executing military leaders and making any excuse it wants, Lying and re-lying to its own citizens, and using other countries to fight their proxy wars for them.
Unfortunately, all you need in American to control public belief, is a good media with great actors. Their only job is to disseminate disinformation and targeted omissions. They then package this theatrical tripe as the whole truth. That's it. Most of the media's audience find it much easier to just believe anything from their favorite celebrity, than to objectively justify that belief themselves(intellectual laziness). Damn Evolution for our herd instinct!
Why is Pine gap still in operation in Australia?? Why does the America military control, and maintain the GPS system for the entire world?? Why is oil traded only in US Dollars??
These answers are as obvious, as they are verifiable. IMHO
