> Their absurd support for tin pot dictators in South America was and is reprehensible, and the whole Iraq war was morally bankrupt and threw fuel on a fire that we’ll be trying to put out for decades. And yet, nothing the American did in the Middle East came anywhere near Aleppo or Mariupol. Or the Holodomor. Or the Prague spring. Yeah sure... and iraq had weapons of mass destruction, and iraqi soldiers killed babies, and afghanistan had to be occupied for 20 years, because a few saudis flew a few planes into a few buildings. Plus syria, libya, lebanon etc... and considering how far back you go in history, there's also blood from vietnam on americans hand. And it's funny how it's a "beloved ruler" when it's a friend of america and "nasty dictator" when it's not... so america has to replace the ones they don't like (eg iran.) Sarajevo is not in kosovo, quite a few years were between sarajevo and the bombing of yugoslavia/serbia. Kosovo albanians wanted to separate from the main country, and the main country (yugoslavia then) wouldn't let them... then they formed armed groups that attacked the serbs, and serbs attacked the albanians... basically the same thing that was happening with the russian minority in eg. donbas and lugansk in ukraine. Then someone (USA) had some geopolicital interests in the balkans, bombed the country for 78 days, bombed hospitals, passenger trains, busses, schools, tv stations, cluster bombed a few cities, bridges, roads, highways etc, and built a nato base in kosovo. So, why have a base in the balkans, if they don't need it? |
