>This war has highlighted just how simplistic people are in that someone has to be the bad guy and someone has to be the good guy

Everyone who has ever said this has gone on to say that the US is the bad guy. And you're always arguing against people who say "Yes, the US is a bully, but that's not important right now."

To be fair, the US is almost always the bad guy.

I don't say this flippantly. Look at the governments the US has overthrown, rebels supported, natural resources stolen, corrupt leaders supported and arms supplied to those committing genocide (eg Saudi Arabia in Yemen).

If the US is the bad guy, who do you think is the good guy?
