re: When are we, as Americans, going to feel shame over the millions killed in our name?

I'm talking about the twelve million people, men, women and children killed by our armed forces since the end of ww2.

The Korean conflict was righteous. We would have been justified in completely deleting Afghanistan after 9/11.

Otherwise, the interventions we have been involved have been for either political gain, profit or some combination, so I agree with you on balance.

(ETA: Americans, collectively, are largely well-intentioned and that extends to servicemen up through field grade officers. It is the civilian and military upper leadership/management that is the problem.)
