5. It wouldn't absolve America of guilt. That isn't possible.

If they came clean on how they helped the US...that makes them complicit in America's war crimes. That in no way absolves the US.

It would, however, expose their own guilt. As they would also be guilty of war crimes.

Which from news stories over the years we already know other countries aided the US in war crimes...and not just European countries.
