What Would Howard Zinn Have Done?

I'm not a highly educated man of great letters. I'm just an old worn out retired cowboy that served in WW II.

I would like to know what Howard Zinn would have wanted the United States to have done after Pearl Harbor? Nothing? Instead spend our money and effort to feed the starving children of Japan?

What would he have wanted the United States to do after the Twin Towers of 9/11? Nothing? Instead spend our money and effort to feed the starving Taliban children? Or, support Arafat?

Is it possible that the United States has done more for the rest of the world than any other country in history?

I wish someone could ask those kinds of questions of Mr. Zinn.
