The United States and England have done far worse, not only to foreigners, but to their own citizens, or -- in the case of the U.S. -- those unfortunate natives who happened to be in the path of its expansion.

Unless of course, you are one of those who believes in "my country right or wrong", which is evidently the case.

For an American to call any other nation a blight on civilization is the ultimate hypocrisy. Look around you.

"America is the first country to have gone from barbarism to decadence without the usual intervening period of civilization." -- Oscar Wilde

That is my point - this man was no saint - his empire was just as bad as all empires. He did not even have the saintlyness to adhere to the treaty he signed with Serbia over Bosnia which caused the Great War nor end the war once it turned into an evil slaughter. He was no saint - he was an inbred man of an inbred royal line.
