The West should pay reparations to Iraq for both the illegal war and all the war crimes.
- papito 5y agoPlenty of suitcases full of cash travelled to Iraq when the neocons were looting the treasury during the project. It's not like that money is going to go to the right people anyway - but nice houses will be built.
- spankyspangler 5y agoThe problem with this corporatist neoleftist thinking is that "the west" are the victims too. Thousands and thousands of people in "the west" were killed or horribly damaged by the war. And they were forced to pay trillions of dollars for it. And like clockwork, the elites will tell those people they are to blame for it, they must pay reparations, they must bear more burden of taking refugees, etc. The actual people who should pay reparations are the war profiteers and those who lied and committed crimes to start these wars.
