" We " as a country have officially declared war on other nations in the past. Japan, Vietnam, Iraq, you name it. You don't say "they" are at war with them, you say "our" soldiers are over there dying everyday. It is not a matter of who is guilty here, this is "our" country, and this is what "we" have done. It has zero to do with personal guilt, this is our country and this is what our country has done.
