The U.S. takes its share of blame with the proxy wars in the 70's---especially in Central and South America. But c'mon, we did what we had to do to stop communism. And this wasn't light-weight communism found on college campuses or in labor union protest rallies, this was communism that got people killed and threatened the planet, but is mostly forgotten by the younger generations that didn't live through it. Russian backed armed forces or missile bases directly under the Mexican border would be a detrimental threat to U.S. security, as Cuban Missile Crisis clearly demonstrated, yet that's downplayed. Instead, the motives for the U.S. to "invade" is due to the evil, imperialistic C.I.A. wanting to take land away from peace-loving hippie farmers, and only the brave communist rebels can save them and offer them hope and change under the banner of a red star. The revisionism displayed by the far left is simply staggering.
