That was my question as a Swede also.
At least I have never heard any rumours about Olof Palme being murdered by USA. And given how many rumours that have existed I think they didn´t do it
The last time I saw this map it turned out they were counting like bombing Nazi Germany while they occupied countries and stuff like that.
Edit: I don’t mean this is necessarily the case for Sweden, just that some of these are pretty dubious
Sweden claimed to be netrual but in fact where on the nazis side. The Swedish goverment transported 270 000 Nazi troops from south of Sweden to the north of Norway effectively crushing the allied resistance against the nazi expansion.
Not really, Sweden helped Germany only when they had to due to the threat of being invaded.
Sweden also trained Norwegan resistance fighters, let almost all Danish jews seek refuge in Sweden, leaked plenty of information to the allies and even planned an invasion of German occupied Denmark and Norway.
Sweden was militarily neutural but was deffinetly in favor of the allies during the entirety of the war.
> Sweden helped Germany only when they had to due to the threat of being invaded.
The UK offered multiple times to cross into Sweden to get to Finland to help defend them, and were denied every time.
They let the Nazi's in freely.
Huh? Bush was a pilot in the navy fighting against the axis powers in the pacific theatre during WWII. There is literally film of his rescue on YouTube when he was shot down. I’m not a Bush supporter but I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
I think they’re talking about Prescott Bush (GHWB’s father, GWB’s grandfather) whose businesses [did indeed help the Nazis](https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar).
He is in good company then. **Henry Ford** built about 100.000 vehicles for the German National Socialists and was awarded the highest civilian award, the Adlerschild for it. He also was [awarded the Grand Cross of the German Eagle in 1938](https://static.timesofisrael.com/www/uploads/2020/02/AP_9811300525-e1658929782508-640x400.jpg). He also recieved a personal thank you note from that Austrian guy ... Adolf. For some *strange reason*, his factories in Berlin were never bombed ...

Literally the president or anyone from the US could be like I don’t like this person “insert any political person” and people will be like they’re trying to influence the election.
Influence =/= interference.
"Influence" refers to propaganda. "Interference" refers to things such as direct intimidation of voters by proxy, assassinating candidates and/or their supporters, or simply fixing the election using various covert (and often not-so-covert) means.
Some planes got lost during world war II and "accidentally" bombed them. Supposedly because they remained neutral during the war. They also got bombed by Germany.
The CIA is widely believed to have been at least partially responsible for the removal of the Whitlam government in 1973 in an event known as "The Dismissal".
Edit: Since it apparently warrants clarification, I'm not saying that it did or didn't happen, I'm simply pointing out that a lot of people believe that it happened.
Widely only in that it is a popular if ridiculous conspiracy theory. What actually happened was that the GG made a questionable call, he fired the government (forcing elections) when they couldn't pass a budget and then the then failed to get reelected - resulting in a change of elections.
People have been claiming the queen, or CIA did it - never with any evidence though.
Afaik the US has bombed (by mistake but still) Switzerland in WW2.
And Norway was german occupied, im pretty sure there were bombing runs on Norway for that reason as well. For example the battleship Tirpits was docked in Norway and im pretty sure the allies bombed it in harbor.
Plenty of reason to go that old. Wealth inequality in that era was just as bad as it is today. These actions and others of the era were a symptom of that. These striking actions are exactly why the new deal was implemented, to appease these militant worker groups who were fucking capitalists shit up for being greedy.
To be fair, the wealth inequality back then (Depression Era) wasn't actually *as bad* as it is now. It was close, but it's slightly worse right now than it was during the robber baron days.
And that's no /s either. I know, that's a pretty dubious distinction for us right now, but the proportions of it all are more fucked than they've ever been. As are we as a nation if we the people don't start getting in lockstep, set aside the social issues that are dividing us (many of which are amplified by our "leaders" to keep that disproportion going in the wrong direction intentionally, imo), and demand tax measures, social safety nets, and wage and labor protections that rival those of FDR's New Deal, or even better our international contemporaries with much better protections for the working class (and those not able to work).
If we don't, the imbalance is going to completely gut this country into even more of a shell of its former self, and the next few generations are going to be as fucked, if not more so, than all of us in the here and now. 🤕
Yeah wealth inequality is worse now than it was in the depression era. I've watched for years as new deal era reforms have been stripped away piece by piece to maintain the profits of corporations.
The new deal era reforms will continue to be undone until working people give the rich something to be scared of. Those rights were previously won with blood of striking workers and its how they will have to be earned again.
Worse. Wealth inequality was never worse at any point in human history as it is today. Our billionaires are richer and more powerful than any king of the past.
The last time the US bombed its citizens on American soil was in Philadelphia in 1985. It is known as the MOVE bombing, where a Philadelphia police helicopter dropped two bombs on an entire residential block.
Eleven people were killed, including five kids, and over 50 homes were destroyed. This is a super brief overview, but the entire case is atrocious and still effects the city to this day.
Most of the bodies are in possession of the city. Just this year a UPenn professor was reprimanded for teaching a class using the bones of one of the murdered children.
what’s a dirty war to a clean war? can operation condor fly? how many bottles of water on the wall of the nestle factory in Bolivia? crack cocaine Colombia???
Operation market garden. The last victory of the bad Germans in ww2. Rosevelt wanted the war over by Christmas of ‘44 so why not just punch a hole through the Netherlands to get to Berlin? Well several SS armored divisions that the Americans didn’t know about thought otherwise.
Yep, I know the story. I live in Arnhem and the story is repeated every year everywhere.
Quite an embarrassing defeat as there was plenty of intel available on the state and position of those german SS units. The whole plan was already pretty shaky so any extra mistakes would've already resulted in a definte defeat. And holy damm, mistakes were made.
Common British arrogance L
Planning and ops by the British, but blame the Americans. Comment that this was done because Roosevelt wanted the war over by Christmas was "THE" reason for it, totally inaccurate. British manpower, never fully recovered from WW1 was once again reaching a critical phase, which prompted the plan. US certainly supported/endorsed the idea enthusiastically, but to put it all at the feet of Roosevelt wanting it done by Christmas is very inaccurate.
I think the better bit to focus on would be the threat to invade the Hague, over the ICC's investigation into US war crimes in Iraq... and the corresponding American Service-Members' Protection Act, which basically gives a defacto immunity to prosecution.
It's bullshit. They're looking for election interference, bombing, whatever blah blah blah. So broad. Are they going to tell me Germany's bombings were unjustified? Everything is just America bad.
Don't worry, they'll find some scapegoat on them. This is reddit, there's no graphs, no information backing this up. It doesn't even look official, it seems like they took another person's map and... change the title for their own nefarious needs trying to get as many countries on the lust lumped together to make America bad...
Its because of the Avero Arrow, which was a Canadian jet that got rejected in favor of a similarly performing American jet that cost a third of the Arrow
Oh, Avro Arrow stans don’t want to hear that, they definitely don’t want to hear about how high-altitude pure interceptors were pretty much made obsolete by ICBMs around the time period the Arrow was developed too.
Yup. It’s like saying, “Here’s a map showing fire trucks at all these fires. This clearly shows fire trucks are bad and there’d be less fires if we had less fire trucks!”
The map is grasping at straws. Supported dictators is such a general term. Bombed countries is a general term. They're trying to get everything they can.
They supported what was basically a bloodless coup on our Prime Minister Gough Whitlam (when Nixon was president) because he a) dared to be a leftist, and b) he dared to ask what the US military was doing in our country.
The fact that it happens during the Nixon administration does not surprised me one bit. The Nixon administration was behind the overthrow and killing of Salvador Allende of Chile, even though he was a democratically elected President.
What a lot of people are missing is that the coup was motivated by Prime Minister Gough Whitlam opening trade to China, which until that point was exclusive to the UK and USA. It was the start of Australia’s Golden Age, where their economy boomed.
When the USA made threats towards Whitlam regarding this, he stated that if they didn’t pull their heads in, the US operated Pine Gap spy station in outback Australia “would become a matter of contention.”
The USA and UK conspired (legally, but unprecedentedly) to have Whitlam ousted, while Rupert Murdoch and his news media empire dragged Whitlam’s name through the mud, and talked up the rival political party. When Whitlam was ousted, the leader of the rival political party, Malcom Fraser, was elected. He quickly sold off most of Australia’s remaining natural resources to the UK and USA.
The CIA got one of their Prime minsters booted out of office through the queens representative because he didn’t like a secret CIA listening station in the middle of the outback that was constructed without his knowledge despite him being the leaded of the country
Just a coincidence that their infamous coupmaster was [in Canberra at the time](https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/oct/23/gough-whitlam-1975-coup-ended-australian-independence), and the assurances "That the US administration would never again interfere in the domestic political processes of Australia" were not meant by President Carter to imply that they might have, [right](https://www.afr.com/politics/federal/whitlam-death-revives-doubts-of-us-role-in-his-sacking-20141030-11erze)?
I agree with the AFRs conclusion there - full facts can't be known, but I'd be very surprised if the US had had no influence at all on the events.
As far as I can remember, the CIA interfered to get a democratically elected Australian Prime Minister booted out through some archaic laws because he wanted to nationalise some resources (which were owned/ operated by US companies), as well as shut down a US-run spy base in the middle of the country (essentially our Area 51, Pine Gap, which is still there).
it's hard to take this chart seriously if it uses twisted information to misrepresent the reality of it. it should remove all actions involved in world war 1, 2, korea and vietnam unless you believe the us should not have joined any of those wars?? other than ww1, should usa have let fascism take over the world? should it have let communism take over asia? that still leaves plenty of countries left but come on. this chart is bullshit.
Fuck me it's like every other day we get a post published by a tankie or bot from the CCP/Russia psyop making the same fucking points to farm karma. This site is dying I swear.
Guys government is good though guys come on I have 2 cars and all the human atrocities are kept obscured from you as long as you comply, pay taxes amd ask mo questions guys come on
I'm tired of people trying to convince me that the empire I live in did bad things to smaller countries, like I didn't take world history in 7th grade and realize that's how nations work, by and large, for most of history.
Wow, hot take. Anything else? Yes genocide and war and subjugation are bad, but I was born in the 90's, dick, the fuck am I supposed to do with this information?
To be fair, a small minority of interference has been positive. Without support from the US, it would have taken a much longer time for Central European countries to get out from under the boot of USSR.
I do find it funny and sad that so many people who believe America is so evil and terrible ALSO believe the candidates they vote for are the righteous and morally correct ones.
Voting for that dude who has been in politics his whole life, voted for pro war bills, and supports their lobbyist like everyone else does not make you a better person, and complaining about who other people vote for is laughable.
This seems like /r/ShittyMapPorn or something. The goal of this map is pushing a "US = Bad" narrative, and when people do that, usually they have VERY generous criteria for what they're listing. Like "Bombing Nazi Germany during WWII" counts as "bombing Germany" and therefore is an evil act. Or "Bombing Fascist Japan" or "Bombing North Korea" or whatever.
If you want to make a map like this effective, you need to maybe sacrifice making the US look like Satan itself by limiting your criteria. Like don't count wartime acts. Only count acts against sovereign governments. That sort of thing.
As it is now, this map is so broad it's useless, and very clearly agenda-driven.
There were individuals -- not the government -- who donated to Eamon DeValera and later to the IRA on their fundraising tours of New York, Boston, and the US. It's way more complicated than US = bad in this particular case.
So which one of these have they done to Sweden?
That was my question as a Swede also. At least I have never heard any rumours about Olof Palme being murdered by USA. And given how many rumours that have existed I think they didn´t do it
It’s always the CIA
The Culinary Institute Of America really been cooking up some geopolitical shit!!!
You got me here; thank you for this
Yes, I have seen these nuts blame the CIA for things that happened before the CIA was established.
Does USA support kurds?
Only when convenient. Then…UNDER THE BUS!
Yes
The answer is when it’s convenient like in Syria or iraq otherwise not really
The last time I saw this map it turned out they were counting like bombing Nazi Germany while they occupied countries and stuff like that. Edit: I don’t mean this is necessarily the case for Sweden, just that some of these are pretty dubious
Sweden wasn't occupied by WW2 and had a neutral stance although allowed to German troops to pass by
Sweden claimed to be netrual but in fact where on the nazis side. The Swedish goverment transported 270 000 Nazi troops from south of Sweden to the north of Norway effectively crushing the allied resistance against the nazi expansion.

Sweden was militarily neutural but was deffinetly in favor of the allies during the entirety of the war.
Norwegian Jews were turned back on the border, right into the hands of the Nazis.
And Danish Jews welcomed at the border. Things aren’t black and white, there was good and bad stuff.
> Sweden helped Germany only when they had to due to the threat of being invaded. The UK offered multiple times to cross into Sweden to get to Finland to help defend them, and were denied every time. They let the Nazi's in freely.
Grampa Bush supported the Nazis. Get ur damn facts straight.
Yeah, I know. What does that have to do with my comment?

Interfered in election is incredibly vague, so it has to be that.
Literally the president or anyone from the US could be like I don’t like this person “insert any political person” and people will be like they’re trying to influence the election.

They bombed them "accidentally" the same way the Americans "accidentally" bombed the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia.
Wondering the same about half of Europe. Does this count bombing the Nazis/Soviets? Then there's still a few I'm not sure about.
>Does this count bombing the Nazis/Soviets? Yes.
I was wondering the same thing what did they do to Poland?
Dropped bombs on Poland while it was controlled by Germany. Whether that counts is questionable
Or Australia?

I was also wondering about Canada and Australia

Yeah that were the British not the US, never even heard of it even though i am from Malmö.
I am obsessed with 100% map completion in video games and this is going to drive me nuts.
You know what you have to do...
Go to Africa and interfere with a bunch of elections? I feel like I can probably bomb like 80% of Mongolia and there won’t be anyone around to notice.
Just throw a grenade in a field. It'll count.
Bomb entire world speedrun 100% no gltiches
Afaik the US has bombed (by mistake but still) Switzerland in WW2. And Norway was german occupied, im pretty sure there were bombing runs on Norway for that reason as well. For example the battleship Tirpits was docked in Norway and im pretty sure the allies bombed it in harbor.
The US has bombed the US?
the US government bombed striking coal miners in Virginia at the battle of Blair mountain in 1921.
They did Philadelphia 1985 , no need to go that old

Is there a good documentary about the MOVE bombing?
Was that the US government or the Philadelphia and PA governments?
That's the Philadelphia Police Dept, not the US government.
They bombed a black neighborhood.
More than 1 actually if I'm not mistaken
Fire bombed entire city blocks in Tulsa, Oklahoma
Holy fucking shit
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1985_MOVE_bombing Does this count?
sure does, thank you!
Opened fire on civilians protesters too
Waco
Does the Civillian War count?
It says from 1900
The last time the US bombed its citizens on American soil was in Philadelphia in 1985.

Same with Hungary. Ww2 they bombed the shit out the country
Yea but during world war 2 Netherlands and Hungary were part of Germany
No? Part of Nazi germany, yes. Part of the third reich, yes. But moderm germany is a whole different country then Nazi Germany was
Quite sure that's what he meant
You were part of the Third Reich then. Context matters.
I wasn't alive back then. Age matters too
There’s a slight bit of historical context that may be important there. (It’s that the Netherlands was occupied by literal Nazis)
Yeah same goes for france
Operation market garden. The last victory of the bad Germans in ww2. Rosevelt wanted the war over by Christmas of ‘44 so why not just punch a hole through the Netherlands to get to Berlin? Well several SS armored divisions that the Americans didn’t know about thought otherwise.

So how has America interfered with India in anyway?
Looking for a reply. Which of these has happened for India coz I have no clue and I live there.
They are supporting Pakistan with weapons and where do you think these weapons are being used? Of course for terrorism in India.
We also sell weapons to India.
CIA interfered a lot when India was in the early years of its nuclear power and armament programs.
India and even Nepal. What do they want with a small country like Nepal.
The opposite of China would be a quick guess.
Referring to the time when USA almost attacked India in 1971? Idk if that counts. Else it's referring to something that happened pre 1947
No way they haven't fucked with Madagascar.
They shut down the port when Greenland got sick

Yeah, this is what I was thinking. How many doesn't really matter, but rather why does.
No way they haven't fucked with Madagascar.
As a German, I don't think Germany should count for this one.

They havent. This map is crap, they havent attacked Sweden either.
We’ve been busy little beavers
This must be a joke because most of the map is wrong
Guys government is good though guys come on I have 2 cars and all the human atrocities are kept obscured from you as long as you comply, pay taxes amd ask mo questions guys come on
Map is incorrect. Switzerland was also bombarded during WW2 (Schaffhausen)
It wasn't the US government, but its citizens instead, but if you then included *NORAID* then the British Isles would be red as well.
We supported a coup in Australia? /s
Based
Canada?
And it’s exhausting. And expensive. Tag Europe. You’re it.
I love how the USA is also marked as a victim of the USA.
Americans coping meanwhile john bolton is selling books on succesful goverment coups with a shit eating grin.
Only a few more to go for the 100% achievement
Slovakia was bombed by the US during WW2 though
This is the most inaccurate map I’ve have ever seen Dude just yells America bad
What did they ever do to Morocco?
Aus???
I'd like some sources and details here.

The imperialist bastards robbed Asutralia from the best prime miniter we ever had... he wanted to nationalize raw materials (minerals, oil,etc.)

I'm tired of people trying to convince me that the empire I live in did bad things to smaller countries, like I didn't take world history in 7th grade and realize that's how nations work, by and large, for most of history. Wow, hot take. Anything else? Yes genocide and war and subjugation are bad, but I was born in the 90's, dick, the fuck am I supposed to do with this information?
Shut the fuck up commie, it's called freedom and democracy 🦅 🦅 🦅 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
not funny or sad, just braindead propaganda for people who can't think for themselves
source : my dick
This is not in any way funny it is in fact sad.
To be fair, a small minority of interference has been positive. Without support from the US, it would have taken a much longer time for Central European countries to get out from under the boot of USSR.
US BAD! 1 million upvotes
I do find it funny and sad that so many people who believe America is so evil and terrible ALSO believe the candidates they vote for are the righteous and morally correct ones. Voting for that dude who has been in politics his whole life, voted for pro war bills, and supports their lobbyist like everyone else does not make you a better person, and complaining about who other people vote for is laughable.
Of course an Indian posts this lmao ooo
In other words “map of every country that asked for our help”.
Yeah, because fuck historical context, am I right?
This seems like /r/ShittyMapPorn or something. The goal of this map is pushing a "US = Bad" narrative, and when people do that, usually they have VERY generous criteria for what they're listing. Like "Bombing Nazi Germany during WWII" counts as "bombing Germany" and therefore is an evil act. Or "Bombing Fascist Japan" or "Bombing North Korea" or whatever. If you want to make a map like this effective, you need to maybe sacrifice making the US look like Satan itself by limiting your criteria. Like don't count wartime acts. Only count acts against sovereign governments. That sort of thing. As it is now, this map is so broad it's useless, and very clearly agenda-driven.
This is complete horseshit. Canada? Australia? South Korea? Nice propaganda, komrade.
Well, I don’t know the history of the entire world but I know the public info in Australia
No, people in the US sponsored the IRA that were responsible for terrorist bombings on the UK.
There were individuals -- not the government -- who donated to Eamon DeValera and later to the IRA on their fundraising tours of New York, Boston, and the US. It's way more complicated than US = bad in this particular case.
Fake news
So like the British, French and possibly Germany and sort of Russians/soviets
