Perhaps you've forgotten what "conquest" is. We took the land by force, but so has every other nation. I'll start feeling bad when every country that has ever taken over a land does, too.

Which basically comes down to never.

Oh, I get it. This is the part where we ignore the slogans about how America is all about freedom, justice, democracy, transparency, honor, big fucking heroes, right, all the shit about the "God bless America and no place else" and how America is the most powerful and righteous country... All of a sudden, now America's just like every other country? Not the example, the standard, anymore?
