I don't get why Mexico never shows up in these lists. My grandma's youngest sister was literally kidnapped by US army soldier STATIONED in my hometown when she was only 13 years old. He used to abuse her, beat her, "married" her faking a birth certificate. He was in his 40's. She was not an exception. He dragged her all through Europe during WWII. There are tons of abandoned US military bases in my country of origin. They still occupy plenty, and we're the dumping ground for any US nuclear waste. Mexico is held hostage to the US too.
America’s Monroe Doctrine did not protect their sphere of influence; it exploited it.
By the short glimpse I just took at what it was, seems it was written to have their cake, eat it too, while telling other colonizers to "talk to the hand..." Interesting....
