In the Balkans in the 1990s, vast areas were targeted for "ethnic cleansing." The world recoiled in horror. In Rwanda, the killing was even worse. There was intense media coverage and much hand-wringing. Absent from the discussion is any acknowledgment that when it comes to ethnic cleansing, the US takes a back seat to no one. In its drive for territory under the banner of "manifest destiny," the continent was virtually cleared of its indigenous population.
