These are amazing. But I think the best America is the one who opened its hearts and arms to those who were its enemies.

Post WWII we helped Japan and Germany, to get them to a better place and stop hating.

America is the best country.

Your knowledge of history is childish. The Marshall Plan was enacted in 1948 after we had brutally subjugated both countries into vassalage after it turned out Uncle Joe wasn't all that great. What happened between 1945 and 1948? Watch this old piece of propoganda made after WW2 by Dr. Suess himself.

That was the prevailing attitude of the day. And its fairly typical behaviour of the conquerors over the defeated. Unless you're chomping at the bit to spend a ton of money in the middle eastern countries we've been bombing for 19 years straight.

Truth!

Even during the Boston massacre, we gave our enemies a fair trial. A noble gesture and one that has been forgotten by our current courts.
