Expressing solidarity with the victims of genocide whom your government helped kill isnt a branding exercise. Not unless you're a cynical, murderous psychopath. It's an expression of basic human decency.

The US paid for similar information from Iraq about WMDs just before it kicked off the invasion. Meanwhile, the US is rearranging its forces in the middle east. What a coincidence.
