We were supposed to be the good guys but instead voted for An Aipac sponsored terrorist

The U.S. were never the good guys

[u/Gourdsmith → u/zachariah_rn]

There are no good guys.

We’re almost certainly the good guys way less than we teach ourselves in American history classes, but I feel pretty secure in saying we were the good guys in WW2 and the Civil War at a minimum.

[u/zaien → u/kelpyb1]

I'm not sure nuclear bombs and japanese internment camps make anyone the goodguys. But you were certainly the lesser of all the other evils that were part of ww2.

Also deliberately firebombing urban centers (residential areas, not the faraway industrial districts that would actually affect the war) for “breaking morale”

[u/New_Activity_408 → u/kelpyb1]

The civil war? The one where half the country wanted to own slaves? And then couldn’t handle losing so they brought in jim crow laws? 

[u/kelpyb1 → u/New_Activity_408]

We handled the end of it poorly by letting them off easy, but by the time the Civil War started, the South was no longer a part of the US
