Hi,
Yes, you're right, a country, its people, has to come to term with history.
Vichy : the Republic came to term with what the "Etat français" did in WW2. We did that.
... What about the CIA recruiting former Nazi criminals who was responsible for tens of thousand chilldren, men and women to support dictatorships in south America?

Just read what kind of person the US protected, supoported, and allowed to help dictatorships. And there are so many more examples.
French Indochina atrocities:
Er, you seem to forget how many of your people got hooked on hard drugs because they couldn't bear the atrocities they had to do in vietnam when they were stoned, how the veterans were ill-treated when back home and the consequences on your US society:
One among many others:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lai_Massacre
"Some authors have argued that the light punishments of the low-level personnel present at Mỹ Lai and unwillingness to hold higher officials responsible was part of a pattern in which the body-count strategy and the so-called "Mere Gook Rule" encouraged U.S. soldiers to err on the side of killing too many South Vietnamese civilians. This in turn, Nick Turse argues, made lesser known massacres like Mỹ Lai and a pattern of war crimes common in Vietnam"
I was abouit 20 when this came out. I just couldn't understand how that could have happened. When I read some posts here, I begin to understand. they will always find some weirdos to kill; kill, kill, wow, my gun, my gun, - kaboom-boom-boom!!!!!!
(so fun)
Algerian French atrocities:
Ah, what do you know about atrocities in algeria at that time,
Yes, torture was commponplace. That was in the 1950s-1960s.
Er... Abu Ghraib, when was that again?...
Oh, two generations later, and the USonians still didn't comply with the Geneva convention:

I see:
When colonialist fascists are from the US, it's "America Great Again".
When a country has come to terms with its horrible past, it's...
What is it exactly? Some of you are so ignorant that they'll never understand why they, or their kids died. You're so stupid. Like the soldiers in the Wermacht, not the nazis, just the stuopid soldiers who were willing to die for... for.... They never had the chance to think about it, they just died, an,d you can find their names on tombs all over Europe.
A country that has helped war criminals not only to escape, but has offerd them protection and money to carry on their racist, nazi ideology has no lesson to tell those who suffered in their flesh and blood. At leat, my family knew what they were fighting for. They were not drafted or mercenaries.
My uncle was sent to Auschwitz. His butchers were exflitrated by the US, and most of them lived a happy life in the USA, so don't lecture me about what's right or wrong.
Learn history, get to know people, travel a bit.
Maybe you'll see that fascism is a dead end.
Les pissenlits (the dandelions).
We would go pick them in the spring with my father, add some boiled eggs, a tad of garlic, and some shallots. that was delicious. OK, it's in French (Ricet Barrier was a French Swiss)
Gotta love French hypocrisy:
Third Reich--including the Vichy French--millions of Jews murdered, concentration camps and numerous atrocities --see especially the racial policies imposed by your countrymen...
