When will Americans learn? It's not about 'Policing.' It's about plundering foreign resources. Iraq, Libya, Ukraine, and so on, are not about being a 'Good Cop.' It's about controlling and plundering their resources.
It's all about the $$$. Once the U.S. gets is, the plundering is on. It has nothing to do with right or wrong. It's only about the dolla bills.
Cheap talk ---- but the facts prove you wrong. Instead of spouting bumper stickers, why don't you look at the facts? How's the price of oil doing these days since we "plundered the Middle East"?
The U.S. is not a 'Good Cop.' It only seeks opportunities to plunder. Just take Iraq as one example. So Saddam Hussein treated his people badly? That had nothing to do with the U.S. Iraq was no threat to the U.S. whatsoever. You can't invade and murder thousands just because you've labeled a leader 'bad.' The U.S. had no valid justification for the bloodbath in Iraq. But now the U.S. and West have their puppet Government. It's time to plunder away.
The wars/interventions aren't about being a 'Good Cop.' They're about getting in there and controlling and plundering resources. The same was done in Libya. And they're attempting to do it in Syria too. No Nation has the right to invade another nation based solely on the belief its leader treats its citizens badly. If that were the case, any nation would be justified in invading the U.S.
Americans just need to realize it's not about 'Policing' anything. It's only about the cash. And average American Taxpayers aren't the ones who'll make that cash. They're just the ones who pay for all the wars/interventions. Only the few Globalist Elites will enjoy the spoils of endless war.
Going into Iraq was a war crime in my estimation and I've said Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld should be tried for war crimes.
I don't see the plundering though. What are we getting? Oil? If you have a link to some information please post.
The world is complicated. The U.S. does some things that are only for the benefit of the few greedy losers like Cheney and Haliburton. And this should be opposed in full force. But you can't paint the entire world with one color. There are many things happening at the same time and none of it is simple.
We shouldn't have gone into Iraq, we were more than justified in going into Afghanistan. In Libya Khadafi was slaughtering his own people with air power, we supported the people there with air power. But we aren't 'plundering' anything from Libya. We don't hold any territory.
Now IsiL, the worst group of humans the Earth has seen since the Nazi's, has risen and is taking territory and slaughtering people in the most heinous way. AND they are exporting these atrocities to the western democracies. If this were all contained within the middle east we could sit it out. It isn't. It is only a matter of time before these lone wolf attacks hit the U.S. What then.
Its a complicated cluster f$%# world, always has been. We have to use our power in pinpoint locations to foster change for the better. And make no mistake, its going to be messy. Whenever you forcefully oppose a group of armed and determined people it is never clean or simple.
If we don't act against IsiL now, we will certainly have to act later. And later its going to be infinitely bloodier and there will be many more splinter cells.
Dude you're way all over the place. Maybe you should rethink your stated position. lol
No the problem is you and others don't understand complexity. The world isn't a 30 minute sitcom.
Your self proclaimed ignorance suits you well
