Who is bombing Africa? It seems a lot of moral outrage against the US stems from false equivalence.
- boomboomsubban 7y agoThe US has been routinely bombing both Libya and Somalia for around a decade.
- yters 7y agoYes but for what reason? Just for fun? To take them over? To combat terrorism?
- boomboomsubban 7y agoOstensibly it's combating terrorism, but basically American imperialism.
- yters 7y agoI must have missed when we colonized Somalia and Libya. Thanks for the update.
- boomboomsubban 7y agoAmerican imperialism has never been about traditional colonialism, so I'm not sure what you mean. As you asked originally, I find neither the US nor China to be moral, but I can't understand the outrage over China's acts while ignoring and trying to justify US acts.
