@Brandon9000,

Go do a little research, Brandon. Count the number of people who have died from US incursions, from US support for right wing dictators, for US policies that have caused the deaths of untold numbers.
Compare them to your enemy du jour and you'll quickly see just who the immoral crazies are. You haven't even read any of the material at the links provided, have you?
The USA has certainly had its share of immoral crazies. Both Iraq and Afghanistan are simply the latest.
Immoral crazies used nuclear weapons twice on Japan, specifically targeting civilian populations. Before these war crimes took place, the US dropped fire bombs on Tokyo and other Japanese cities, again specifically targeting civilian populations.
Between 2 and 3 million people died in Vietnam, all because of a lie, perpetrated by who, a set of immoral crazies from the USA.
The list is long and sordid.
