You're right. Conflicts involving equality and human rights between peoples and their governments has only happened in the past, and the USA is currently immune from such conflict, so we can hardly define it as such. I don't regret the sarcasm: your presumption that defining what can be classified as a veritable struggle for human welfare can, in turn, be used as an argument for which struggles are most deserving of praise is what is called a straw man argument, perhaps the most annoying fallacy to refute before an audience of undecided thinkers as it is effective despite being logically inconsistent.
