My love / hate relationship with the USA started early.

In University 1983, one of my textbooks in a sociology course was:

Under The Eagle: United States Intervention in Central America and the Caribbean

The history of the USA is damning.

No wonder Putin and others keep pointing out past wars started by the USA.

I spent a lot of time on a term paper: The Rise of American Imperialism and Precipitating Factors

Super critical of most American interventions in their part of the world.

I particularly criticized puppet dictators supported by Washington: Samoza, Trujillo, Batista, etc.

I only got a C+ / B- on the paper. 😀
