Excuse me Sir, but this is a complete nonsense. You should stop watching manipulated media and start building your own opinion by communicating with people from foreign countries.
Let's start with the hard cold facts.
USA has been at war 93% of the Time – 222 out of 240 last Years – Since 1776
America Has Been At War 93% of the Time - 222 Out of 239 Years - Since 1776
Check out how many of those wars have NOT been on the territory that belongs or ever belonged to USA. Check out how many of them are actually Conquests.
Now compare it to the list of Russian wars and try to figure out how many of them are civil wars, defensive or around the Russian borders.

Now let's get back to your statements above.

Are you trying to say that US military do not own any cruising missiles? How many times have we seen this scenario of bombing "set ups" where US actually bombed "friendly" targets and started a media war against the other party. Not trying to imply that this is the case here, but remember who actually started the conflict in Syria?

How would you behave if somebody came to your place (California?) trying to conquest it and kill your family? Will you be kind, nice and welcoming?
Now something eye-opening for you.
From my point of view: US aviation bombed center of Belgrade (Serbia) at the end of WWII (1944), though Serbia was one of the Allies. They razed a childbirth center with hundreds of babies and pregnant mothers. Exact the same scenario repeated back in 1999 with NATO. And I don't remember seeing something like that ever happened with Russians.
I can name you at least 100 civilian targets in Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia and Kosovo that were struck by NATO aviation with thousands of civilian victims, including the usage of forbidden cluster bombs in big cities. And we are talking about the countries in the middle of Europe, that existed 10+ centuries before USA.
Hundreds of cluster bombs were dropped in '99. in the middle of Serbia by NATO aviation (US aviation, to be more precise). They were dropped to an open marketplace in the middle of the day in city center of a city the size of Sacramento and I have personally witnessed that. And believe me, it was not funny at all. There were no military objects, no "rebels" (notice the quotation marks), no army, nothing but peaceful unarmed civilians.
I'm just trying to advise you to think twice about anything serious you might say, before you actually say it. And stop to believe blindly to whatever you see or hear on TV, without using your brain first.
I'm not a pro-Russian oriented at all, not taking any sides here, I do not hate USA at all, but this really makes me think twice about US methods of defending "democracy" and "peace" and the media brainwash being a part of the equation.
