Fuck no.
Those disgusting rats killed 20 percent of the North korean population then embargoed their country for 70 years causing untold misery and people wonder why its a batshit, enclosed and highly secretive society
The bombing was long, leisurely and merciless, even by the assessment of America’s own leaders. “Over a period of three years or so, we killed off — what — 20 percent of the population,” Air Force Gen. Curtis LeMay, head of the Strategic Air Command during the Korean War, told the Office of Air Force History in 1984. Dean Rusk, a supporter of the war and later secretary of state, said the United States bombed “everything that moved in North Korea, every brick standing on top of another.” After running low on urban targets, U.S. bombers destroyed hydroelectric and irrigation dams in the later stages of the war, flooding farmland and destroying crops.
Although the ferocity of the bombing was criticized as racist and unjustified elsewhere in the world, it was never a big story back home. U.S. press coverage of the air war focused, instead, on “MiG alley,” a narrow patch of North Korea near the Chinese border. There, in the world’s first jet-powered aerial war, American fighter pilots competed against each other to shoot down five or more Soviet-made fighters and become “aces.” War reporters rarely mentioned civilian casualties from U.S. carpet-bombing. It is perhaps the most forgotten part of a forgotten war.

As long as muricans sit idly by while their leaders rape pillage and destroy, they-re responsible. Agree or disagree?

Unfortunately the media doesn't report on American atrocities. The majority of Americans are completely ignorant and indoctrinated to American greatness from a young age. And the atrocities that are reported are given the cop treatment, "a few bad apples."
