      I obviously don’t know what Dessalines meant by his map, but you should read about all the shit US was doing in Europe in the last 50 years - e.g. Operation Gladio is the most famous one. That did include mass bombings done by US and trying to pin the blame on antifa or socialist or communist parties.

          You are assigning morality to invading. This simply states that the US invaded these countries.
