Vietnam was a civil war. American involvement wasn't necessary, they still went in anyways and made it seem like they were attacked (loook at the vietnam link, it was known as the Gulf of Tonkin accident whereby the USS Maddox was
supposedly attack on while in international waters)
As for WW2, i never said the US started it (Thanks for putting words in my mouth), If you read what i wrote, you'd realize i was saying that the US was already taking war preperations on Japan prior to the bombing of pearl harbour, such as cutting off trade to dampen Japan's war efforts.
Germany's move to take german speaking parts of Czechoslovakia was a ploy to provoke the british and french, as they didn't want to anger the US into joining into the War. However, the european powers just let have hitler have his way as they tried to appear sympathetic to avoid a 2nd world war. That is, until they invaded a neutral country that Britain swore to protect under a treaty (can't recall treaty name at this point of time).
As for the Japanese attacking China, they've been at war since the... mid 1930's, If so, why didn't the US intervene earlier? And perhaps you could enlighten me a little on the China-US Alliance (Pre WW2 of course) as I'm not familiar with it (
In fact I'm pretty sure the US was against China in during the era of the Taiping and Boxer rebellions at the fall of the Qing dynasty and that they were never allies until WW2 was in full swing).
Furthermore, prior to the mukden war, Manchuria was under Russian influence (till the japanese came), you don't see the US doing anything about that either do you?
Boxer Rebellion:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxer_rebellion
"Troops from all nations engaged in plunder, looting and rape. German troops in particular were criticized for their enthusiasm in carrying out Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany's July 27 order to "make the name German remembered in China for a thousand years so that no Chinaman will ever again dare to even squint at a German". This speech, in which Wilhelm invoked the memory of the 5th-century Huns, gave rise to the British derogatory name "Hun" for their German enemy during World War I."
Sino-Japanese War:

[edited for flaming]. Pearl Harbour was a naval base, the US knew it was getting involved in a war. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were civillian areas, there's so much protest about 9/11 and all the people who died, and I'm pretty sure you're against it too, and yet you have the audacity to say 100-200 thousand civillians deserved to die/ end up scarred for life?? not even 5thousand americans died on 9/11!
I personally met an A-bomb survivor from hiroshima last year who came to visit my school and talk about the experience and how he is anti-nuke and hopes to spread the word on the subject. People like you disrespect the kind of things that survivors like him go through and their purpose for living (spreading the word on anti nuclear proliferation).
