It has assisted in numerous ones internationally. Directly committed I guess it depends on whether we count the Native American genocides as one or hundreds?

Not sure how many others would be directly committed and meet the qualification of genocide. There’s the massacres of civilians in Vietnam and Korea but genocide scholars don’t usually consider it such. The ethnic cleansing of Germans and Japanese from various territories after World War Two was more about relocation than total destruction. Maybe the concentration camps and landscape destruction during the Philippines war? Still that’s not cut and dry.
