Ah, the Great American lie. Well one of them. The idea that American liberalism is somehow different. And yet when you actually start examining it it looks exactly the same. I mean you just said that liberalism in America is Anti-Imperialist and anti-war. If you've never opened a history book I suppose you might have come to that conclusion. How else you do it I have no fucking idea.

If you actually read what I said it's what out parents and grandparents wanted to achieve in lieu of imperialism and war. They were wrong because they couldn't face the truth that the country their parents died for in WW2 would go on the put a boot on the neck of any country that tries to challenge their one sided control over worldwide economics.Then they died in droves in Korea and Vietnam for an ideal they just couldn't believe mislead them.

If you actually read it, of course.
