Re: War Guilt and Why the Allies Won the War
IMHO each act has to be appraised separately, and not be added or substracted to a kind of "invoice" on the name of given country, because you can't judge people by their father's acts.
There are many things to say about the Native Americans, and on a wider scope the overall exploitation of the 3rd world by occidental powers, but it should tarnish in no way the US and their allies glorious fight against facism during WWII.
Both have their own place in history.
Each country has is wrongs and crimes in history, the longer the history, the more many of them.
