Exactly. Many Americans, for example, seem perfectly content to overlook or ignore the war crime atrocities committed by the United States during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars after 9/11. Reminds me when Jesus asked who do you notice the splinter in your brother's eye but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own eye?

As a Cold War kid I've come to despise this whole WE are the good guys, THEY are the bad guys narrative. It ignores the fact everybody has good traits and everybody has bad traits - that is it ignores the fact we're all human. None of us have the market cornered on doing good. Or doing bad.

And we locked children in cages and separated them from their parents. You can find something to be outraged about in any country you care to look at.

Yes and all these issues should be dealt with.
