I wonder how one would go about adding up the various crimes against humanity perpertrated by all the African, Asian and South American dictators and bloodthirsty tyrants the US installed and supported as a bullwalk against Communism, not to mention the 3-4mil dead in Vietnam alone. From Pinochet to Saddam to Idi Amin to list is long and bloody. While going though that list lets not forget the Shah who survived with strong US backing, amongst other things his secret police SAVAK, friendly chaps, had a habit of inserting broken glass and boiling water in the rectums of dissidents that liked the idea of self-rule. Sounds strangely familiar.....
