| benao87 said: O.o Apologies accepted. Now, there are still some other pending. Starting the rebellion in Panama, and taking away from our country, supporting the Contras in Nicaragua, Trujillo's dictatorship in Dominican Republic, assasination of Allende and the support of Pinochet in Chile, the Cuban Embargo, lol I really don't like your government. |
Hey, I don't approve of a lot of what my government has done either. But here; I would like to formally apologize on behalf of my country for its actions in starting the rebellion in Panama, and for taking control of the Panama Canal (if this is what you meant...?) from Panama for so many years. I would also like to apologize for the government's support of the Contras in Nicaragua, placing Trujillo into power in the Dominican Republic, the assassination of Allende and the support of Pinochet in Chile, and the Cuban Embargo (especially as it is still going on now...). I'm sorry.
While this apology doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things, many of us US citizens are not proud of many things that our country has done (even if we don't admit it), and we do not always agree with the actions of our government.

That's sad to hear. At least in my experience, most of us aren't like that. I'm sorry that your only experiences with the people here were with people who acted that way.
