American Crimes against Humanity!
There are many crimes against humanity that America committed, here is a small list
1.) Testing the effects of radiation on soldiers, like injecting uranium pellets into sailors.
2.) Giving syphilis to unknowing people to test treatments and cures.
3.) The so called 'black sites' which violate the laws of war.
4.) Most likely quite a few things done by the Special Activities Division (SAD).
There are others, so should America be pardoned (as they have reasons for doing so) or should they not?

Hey, the USA Has done these things for multiple reasons. But the overall identifying theme is that they are trying to maximize the United States' citizens lifespans. By either 1.) Giving people complications so that they know what to do medically, the injecting of sailors with uranium pellets was to help their people recover from radiation poisoning when the nukes came. 2.) Torturing detainees for information to resolve crises, and to get information on possible future events. How many have been stopped? The world will never know. Side: Should be pardoned
maximising their own life spans by minimising others. great plan. seems to go hand in hand with capitalism. torturing detainees to get them to admit to crimes they never commited while ignoring those who do commit crimes. i can easily say that if the u.s. was eliminated, how many crises would have been stopped, especially since 70% of wars are created by the u.s. Side: No excuses for what they did.

What the USA did is unacceptable! They damaged many lives for reasons that would most likely only help the higher-ups in society! Those international laws are in place for a reason, and that reason is to allow humans to be treated like humans rather than lab rats. Most of the things that were done were for a war that never happened (yet... but the odds are slim). Side: No excuses for what they did.

I'm not saying that the USA is the perfect country, and that we never committed any wrong doing. We tested radioactive items on soldiers because at the time we didn't know or understand the effects of radiation. It doesn't make it right, but it should be taken into consideration. I don't think that the whole torturing terrorists is a good argument for you because who gives a crap? No offense. I mean why should we care about what we do to terrorists when they can and have and will continue to murder innocent people all over the world. They don't play by the rules and in this case, I don't think we should either. Side: Should be pardoned
im not saying the usa is a perfect country either, thats why the u.s. constantly overthrows democratically elected leaders, frames others for being terrorists, promotes false propaganda about other governments via their liberal media, purposely crashes others economies, ie through the plaza accord, forcefully sets up sweat shops, creates oil spills, pollutes the environment, wastes resources, robs resources, kills 1 million iraqis. Side: No excuses for what they did.

let's take a look at the relationship that the u.s. had with iraq, iran, and china. first of all, iraq. the u.s. put sadam in power and supported him for over 20 yrs. the u.s has also supported iran. since sadam decided to trade oil in euros, america decided to over throw him and install a pupet regime that obeys u.s. orders. fact of the matter is, as bad as iraq was, they were backed by the u.s. the same went for iran. in fact, the only reason why iran is black listed by america is because it wont allow u.s. oil corporation in there to rob them. do you ever wonder why everything is made in china? its because nixon went in there and struck a deal with deng. in fact, it was america who gave china the most favoured nation status. prior to nixon going into china, there were no sweat shops as we know it today. america also supported china's entry to the wto. egypt is also a widely known puppet government of the u.s. in fact, the cia regularly kidnaps people and tortures them in egypt. Side: No excuses for what they did.
People like you guys are not fit to be leaders. You are wise enough to know that victory can not be achieved without sacrifice. Some medicines today have been tested on humans and have proven to work effectively. People complain about Animal testing, but when we use testing on humans they still complain. People get real, think about what must be done to provide your country with the things it needs. Side: Should be pardoned
