You're jumping all over the place and it's funny. Let's go back to your earlier claim: "The US has been the bad guys in every war it's been in". Were the US the "bad guys" in WW2? Yes or no?

No, I was providing additional support to the claim that even in WW2, the US aren’t the good guys.

Were the US the “bad guys” in WW2? Yes or no?

Yes, I would call the country responsible for the Nazis (the Nazis were inspired by the U.S. and actually thought it went too far with the one-drop rule) and the only country to use two nuclear bombs on civilians on a country that was already ready to surrender the bad guys.

Amazing. Let's try another. England in WW2: good guys or bad guys?

Towards whom? To their indian subjects? They were worse than the nazis. To the USSR after finally siding with them? To the USSR when they were planning to bomb Baku and send troops to Finland? To Czechslovakia when they sold them out to germany and poland? To the USSR when they deliberately stalled the creation of what would become the allies and instead helped Germany?
