Our side bombed Doctors without Borders hospitals in Afghanistan, fugged up the Vietnamese with Agent Orange and used Depleted Uranium in Iraq.
There are no innocents among world powers.
A more objective analysis is required for us all to move forward - and I'm not sure anyone hates Groper Don the Con more than me. All this talk about morality and exceptionalism is bullshit.
A better argument speaks to the benefits of Liberal Democracy and Rule of Law. You see for all its flaws the American people believe in the rule of law and the Constitution and will fight for both.
All are guilty of evil in the name of the interests of the dominant class/the fugging 1%.

(99,710 posts)Why ally with Russia to fight Muslim terrorists and piss off those who are on the fence?
Bannon and Flynn are itching to fight a war against Islam. It is in Putin's interest to have that war too. Why are we even fighting Muslims at all?
I can't even imagine what war against 1.7 billion people who are dispersed all over the globe would like.
