Listen, not all nazi soldiers were particularly bad. I'm sure a chef in the rear guard probably did not do a single war crime. But when the SS existed we know that the chef isn't what most people refer to when discussing war crimes of the era.
Its the same in this era. Sure, there are bad guys all over the place, but compare to the US there's really only a handful of entities in the post WWII era that could be equals, and none more evil.
