Don't Americans have some responsibility for the mass dead Iraqis? Whether they supported the war directly or not they sat by while their country waged war for economic reasons. Why is it ok to accept violence wrought by others? Good that some Israelis protest. But what prevents needless death and pain? What actions bring peace?
- OfSanguineFire 3y agoYou are trying to hijack my reply and turn this thread into a debate on what actions should be taken, who is to blame, etc. Please don't use HN for political battle. The OP made a factual error and I corrected it, no more.
- mindslight 3y ago"Sat by" is doing an awful lot of work there. My recollection was not that many Americans actually "sat by" - it was quite divisive. Lazy support like those "support our troops" bracelets was of course positively supporting the war and thus shares in responsibility, but that was by no means the whole country.
