Originally, Hubert, you wrote (and I quote)

Now, either you must stand behind what you wrote, and
maintain that that the U.S. is guilty of aggression all
over the globe, or you must clarify. Which is it to be?

I also asked you to imagine what it would be like if a
single superpower like the U.S.S.R. or Nazi Germany were
in the U.S.'s place. Would that be incomparably worse,
or not?
