  • USA spends 39% of global spending on military but has only 4% of the population.
  • Vietnam is the most bombed country in the world.
  • The US has caused so much suffering, instated dictators like Pinochet, fueled proxy wars in Latin America and in the middle-east, they even funded the taliban in the 80s.
  • American foreign policy is insane and USA is a terrorist state.
