Is it good to beat the shit out of the school bully after he picks a fight with you so he learns to stop picking fights with people? I would say so.
Not if you're quite similar to that bully
There's a difference between being a good country and being a global force for good. In helping to defeat the Nazis, the U.S. was a global force for good regardless of what else they did, had done or will do. The same with Stalinist Russia.
Not really
Bad countries can't do good things?
If they did they'd be good countries
So it was bad to defeat the Nazis and the Confederates?
Vultures can kill each other
Vultures are good. They eat carrion that would otherwise rot. They also generally don't kill each other. So I'm not sure that your analogy works.
It does because they're despicable birds that prey on the weak
They don't prey on anything. They eat carrion. Do you even know what a vulture is?
