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

It’s a pretty simplistic view of history for one and we can argue about Vietnam for days but Communism was a real threat look no further than N Korea or China today. We had no choice in Korea and should have continued into China. That leaves Iraq as a very questionable war but there weren’t millions killed in Iraq by any stretch of the imagination. The mistake we made in Afghanistan was not finishing the job and staying too long trying to build a democratic government that was never going to succeed

MASSIVE FAILS. And NOT true by any and all true measures.
We can "argue" for all of 3 seconds about narratives that were based solely on state dept propaganda and more bulls# fear porn that enriched the MIC and politicians.
In NO way was any military action in Korea worth 200k American casualties, nor another 200k casualties in Vietnam as per doctrines and wars fought NOT to "win" in the first place.
Moreover, USA govt officials -- besides having somehow "gifted" China High Tech and weaponry "secrets" during the 1990s with absolute immunity -- also help aid & abet these same Commies as out biggest trading partner (while at the same time gutting US manufacturing).
(And in case you also hadn't noticed -- part & parcel of the governance is controlled by Communist faction right here in the good ol' USA.)
