Taken on the whole, we have NOT suffered through war as much as Europe. The reasons for said wars are beside the point. Why can you not accept this? It doesn't denegrate America in any way. Seriously, what's the big deal? So what if we haven't been through as much bloodshed as Europe? How is that a bad thing? We chould be thanking God for it, not being angry when someone points it out.
You are stating that we, America, have NOT suffered as much as Europe. We have suffered more. We willingly entered foreign soil to defeat Communisn for many nations. Most have forgotten the sacrifices we have made. If you count the extermination of many lives during WWII alone and the atrocities that occured. Think of the Holocaust. No, you probably don't. American lives were lost on foreign soil defending freedom for others. Think about that. A nation that fought and defended other countries for democracy. And Europe loved US then. They still do. What's the big deal? That, in itself, is a big deal.
First of all, don't EVER tell me what I am or am not thinking of. My grandfather was in WWII, he told me when I was a boy what he say. Yes, the camps too. Don't you dare take that tack with me. And I know full well about Americaqn lives lost on foreign soil. I served for 8 years. I have some inkling of what it's like to serve, thank you very much.
