One of the most dangerous ideas of the 20th century was that people like us could not commit atrocities against civilians. German and Japanese citizens believed it, but their militaries slaughtered millions of people. British and French citizens believed it, but their militaries fought brutal colonial wars in Africa and Asia. Russian citizens believed it, but their armies murdered civilians in Afghanistan, Chechnya, and elsewhere. Israeli citizens believed it, but their army mowed down Palestinians and Lebanese. Arabs believed it, but suicide bombers and hijackers targeted U.S. and Israeli civilians. U.S. citizens believed it, but their military killed hundreds of thousands in Vietnam, Iraq, and elsewhere. - Dr. Zoltan Grossnan academic.evergreen.edu/g/grossmaz/interventions.html
