I really don’t forget Europe. Sorry if you’ve understood that in my post. I’ve mentioned some examples and used words like “western world”. Meanwhile I think US are the most active nowadays. Aren’t they ? It’s the privilege of the world champions.
If you want some more about France :
- France responsible of genocide in Madagascar in 1947 : 300.000 dead people.
- France made war in Algeria (1954-1962) : about 300.000 Algerians dead
- Mitterrand was chosen in 1990 to negociate peace with Saddam Hussein before Gulf War 1. Saddam Hussein answered positively and accepted to free the hostages. After suddenly Mitterrand closed negotiations (to join US point of view) and the war began. : > 100.000 dead
- France and Mitterrand (I hate this man) responsible of genocide in Rwanda in 1994 : 800.000 dead Tutsis.
- …..

We can easily find others for England, Russia…

But I’ve forgotten a lot of my English when I was in heaven.
