The country that gave the world its first concentration camps in South Africa at the turn of the 20th Century where tens of thousands died.

No wonder its gone down the toilet.

Actually that distinct honor goes to Spain.

In the late 19th century, the Spanish army created “reconcentration” camps in its war against Cuban independence - hundreds of thousands perished in the “Cuban Holocaust”.

Many more Cubans would have perished if the United States hadn't kicked Spain out of Cuba as a result of the Spanish-American War.

True to form, leftist historians ignore Spanish atrocities in Cuba, the Philippines and elsewhere, while painting the Spanish-American War as the mean ol’ US picking on poor little Spain in order to expand its empire.
