    We learned that "America is the greatest country in the world" that every new cool thing came from USA, that "made in USA" meant quality, and that USA saved the entire world in WW2.
    When growing up, and learning more about the world, we understood that NOTHING of this is true at all.
    After learning about how USA really is and travelling over the Atlantic and by own eyes see how USA unfortunately are, we conclude that Reaganism and decades of extreme rightwing politics has turned USA in to a third world development country.
    And unfortunately we can't find a single coup or conflict in the world since ww2 without american fingerprints

    So... Would I be wrong to assume the US is starting to activate some foreign contingencies in preparation for something they expect to happen soon?
    See I'm to lazy to do the leg work but I'm willing to bet you'd find videos from other embassies in other countries running a mirror of this video, right?

      True. All embassys do the same. But theres a difference between peaceful coexistence and bombing schools and hospitals as part of war strategy.

      Oh I completely agree although I feel it worth mentioning that I wasn't levying support for anyone, just stating a hypothesis for the motivation behind your administrations reasoning in greenlighting this.
      Also, not the best choice of examples either when considering American military history for those of us born before the 90's with a working memory.
      As far as the Russians go, since you brought it up.
      I'd assume most of the world is starting to see them as a trumped up bogeyman used by the defence ministry to excuse military spending for decades now.

      How come it's weird though?
      We are one of the countries with the highest english literacy and since we are outsiders we get to see the political chaos and media manipulation more clearly as outsiders than most americans are ever able to.

    My memories go back to WW2 and the famine in Amsterdam in 1944-45 and the help from the US we received afterwards.
