Oooh, do America/Iraq next

• causi 4y ago
  That is also awful, and the way American leadership covered for those monsters nauseates me.

  Look up Phoenix program for wild things. Not to take any Iraqi victims lightly, but Vietnam had much more atrocities.

    I think you're collectively missing my point; the two parents in this thread are phenomenal example of https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/355/607/670 https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/355/607/670 Related, but it's pretty eye opening to see left-leaning people being marketed and fully sold a war. I can only surmise this latest rehash of "support of troops" is about the best chance/narrative that team donkey has for the upcoming elections. Cognitive dissonance banalities(1) notwithstanding.

      Nice graphic. I have been thinking about this a bit. I think a good way to say on which side you are is to ask: Could I protest here freely? Most democratic systems will allow protests, no matter what the official/government position on the topic is. Protesting and speaking your mind will get you in serious trouble elsewhere.

      Yes I missed your point and thinking about it I don't know what's your point when you've said "Oooh, do America/Iraq next" I thought it was about the relativity of a standpoint and mirror positions. For that I've replied "use Vietnam", because in the atrocities of the US Iraq is relativly moderate and not very interesting to do a "The American ..." but the Phoenix program is much more so. But I didn't get it.
