So, you mean where the US at least kinda-sorta apologized and paid restitution? I hate the Regan years as much as the next person, but this is a false equivalence. I didn't see Russia/Donblast apologize after MH-17...

Fair, besides the fact that they took 8 years and did not admit legal liability or formally apologize to Iran. However, this is not true for every crime that the US has committed. OP could've explained why those crimes might not be relevant to the discussion, instead he tried to one-up them with the crimes of other regimes.

In the case of the US, or every other great power; that game can go on indefinitely.
