Fair point regardig use of the word vengeance. Exchange the words "God's wrath against sin" for vengeance then. Regardless, either you believe God poured all of his wrath out on Jesus for all sin once and for all or, alternatively, partially punished Jesus for sin and held some of his wrath against sin back to "punish America" or whatever. But, if you take the second option, you run up against this verse, "For such a High Priest was fitting for us, holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens; who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people’s, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself." (Hebrews 7:26-27)
