There are several cases I didn’t even get to also. Doesn’t count indiscriminate killings related to what I call the ‘Empire Wars” in any of the World Wars, Korea and so on.

End American Imperialism to end the killings.

  2. Are you off your crock? The U.S has done shitty things and many people have died as a result, but everything after Laos is bullshit. The cream of the crop is “CIA baited USSR in Afghanistan.” Like the US is responsible for the Soviet INVASION of that hapless country. What the fuck are you smoking, Mr. Chomsky. In your effort to pile on you items that the US could not possibly have done thus weakening an initially good argument. You are the kind of dumbass that makes regular people not pay attention to the viciousness of our Govt.

  4. As evil as u.s. overt and covert violence, coming up with meaningful numbers is indeed tricky, and the easy argument against implied meaning is that hands-off foreign policy arguably allowed the Rwandan genocide not to mention the Nazi Holocaust or the genocide in Darfur to continue unabated. “Regular people” aren’t stupid, there’s legitimate complexity to these issues Charles Yuditsky.

    If only military violence were the worst of it. As with the genocide of American Indians (or the influenza following WWI that killed many more than the war itself) it’s death by disease that trumps all these numbers. That includes the health impact of big tobacco on the third world, not to mention fast food, alcohol, pharma. And now that our sites are set on murderous business practices we can cite the granddaddy of em all, oil. Clean, sustainable energy, and single payer health care folks, or we could just yell at each other as dumbasses. The problem with the left is we’d rather be self-righteous than effective. Dumbasses.

  5. @ #2:
    Post-Laos: The fact is that what happened in Cambodia et al was a direct result of the US’s imperial ambitions in Vietnam. Check your history. Ho Chi Minh was pleading with the US to help liberate them from French Imperial rule back around the end of WW2. His idol was Thomas Jefferson. The US establishment brushed him off and gave the ruined France good graces to re-invade. Eventually they fought French rule and the US stepped in to claim the geostrategic prize (look at the map and compare Nam with Korea in relation to communist China. Then all attempts for a democratic vote for the Vietnamese on what regime would establish the new government were stomped out by the US. Minh wasnt even officially Communist until that point, and to him even dealing with the Commies was better than living under outright imperialist rule. Like it was ever any of our business if they wanted to be commie to begin with.

    The CIA DID bait, or rather sow the seeds of engineered proxy war to give the Soviets their Vietnam. Read the links. I can provide more. And it was Obama’s chief foreign policy advisor, Zbignew Brzezinski, who did it.
