Why does it matter if it's for a class? I live in the real world, and the facts matter to me.

A crucial totalitarian principle is that the state is identified with the people, the culture, the society. For those who adopt that principle, criticism of the state is hatred of the country. In the old Soviet Union, for example, dissidents were condemned as “anti-Soviet” or “haters of Russia,” because they condemned policies of the Holy State. We, however, rightly regarded them as the people most dedicated to the welfare of the Russian people. The concept has biblical origins. King Ahab, the epitome of evil in the Bible, condemned the Prophet Elijah as a hater of Israel because he denounced the crimes of the evil king, who, like all totalitarians, identified state power—himself—with the society and people.

Where there is a democratic culture, such a notion would be ridiculed.

No countries in view that WW2 have have used nuclear weapons on an opponent interior the battlefield or on a civilian inhabitants. Technically so a protracted way as wars pass america has purely been in touch in 2 wars because of the fact the tip of WW2. the 1st one became the chilly warfare, wherein the Korean and Vietnam "Wars" have been purely close by conflicts, which we gained (whilst the U.S. cave in and the disintegration of the Warsaw %.) and the present one that's the "warfare on Terror." using nuclear weapons have purely be used for the needs of deterrence. the present checklist of countries that have nuclear arsenals are right here: america the united kingdom Russia Pakistan Israel India France China (human beings's Republic) The countries of North Korea (no longer particular they do have it - yet in all probability do) and Iran are coming up such weapons.

The link will show everything the US Military has done. Why limit yourself to the post WWII time.

The author failed to note the bombing of the Chinese Embassy during President Clinton's Administration. Technically that was an act of war committed against China.

From the way you asked this I need to ask why? Is it for some anti American propaghanda stunt, or is for a history class talking about the post WW2 era and the cold war and beyond.
