I have no problem admitting to the things we did wrong. I just dislike hearing that the US and USSR were moral equivalents during the Cold War because I think that is ridiculous.

If that wasn’t your point with the “mirror image” comment then we don’t disagree.

I was talking about what we did on the covert level, in fact. In keeping with the subject of this thread. For anyone to jump from that to me saying we were just alike in all or even most regards is a little - odd, shall we say?

In regard to our covert actions, I totally and absolutely stand by the “mirror image” statement. Go (re)read “The Spy Who Came In from the Cold” if you don’t believe me.
