Had MacArthur had his way, Hiroshima would look like a safe haven compared to Pyongyang. He suggested using nukes “tactically” in North Korea to take out strategic infrastructure like bridges and tunnels. But that’s kind of like bringing a cannon to hunt sparrows. This was the US’ most celebrated general at the time on account of his success in the Pacific Theatre during WW2 and enormous success defending South Korea; what he said could really only be overruled by the President, which is ultimately what happened.
The top brass didn’t care about civilian casualties. That much is obvious when they suggest using full-blown nukes just to take out bridges.

If all it takes is a human killed by a robot, then it began in 1979 with Robert Williams at a Ford factory.

…? I think there are plenty of lower bars than the US… in fact I can’t think of a more apt country to compare to. If you count Europe as a region then that would be valid as well, I guess. The US is the only world economy on the same level as China.

… duh.

One mans’ terrorist is another mans’ freedom figther.

The point of Congress is to be able to challenge the singular power of the head of state if they get too power-hungry… it doesn’t work if you can just disregard it whenever you feel it’s inconvinient. Do you want a (for now) democratically elected dictatorship where there is no challenge to the power of the president?

The concept of open borders for work and tourism works very well for the EU (imo) - I think this is a good thing.

Sources say it’s of Hindi origin, but when I actually checked the statistics, it says there’s only 130 people in India with the name, while there’s ~56 million in China. So it seems to be mostly a Chinese name. Although further googling seems to indicate that’s the Chinese name for “Mrs.”… so it might be that these sources are reading the title field as the first name, lol.

India, I assume.

1. Maria 2. Nushi 3. Mohammed

Wtf does the bloods and crips have to do with this lmao… are you OK?

And how does not being pro-war make you biased towards the left? That’s the dumbest take I’ve ever seen. Is the right inherently pro-war according to you?

The part where people have been living in a place for hundreds of years only to have someone else come in and take it and then put them in the worlds largest prison?

Well, yeah, the US and its allies are the controlling party in the international community.

Absolutely agree with you here

Agreed. Which is why the IDF also needs to be eliminated.

Both sides are and have been commiting atroscious acts against civilians and neither side can be excused for their inhuman actions.

The international community has shown to be Pro-Israeli and thus anti-Palestinian. The Palestinian Plan for Partition was a plan to peacefully split up British Palestine into a separate Jewish and Arab state, as well as Jerusalem becoming a free city. The plan gave 62% of the land to the Jewish community despite the Arabic population having twice the population. Obviously the Arab population rejected this plan on the basis that it violated the right to natuonal self-determination, and thus this perpetual conflict was born.
Especially with the US being so obviously Pro-Israel and having virtually all power on the decision-making of the West, why would you think the Arab population would ever get fair treatment under an international “peacekeeping” mission?

DU rounds and cluster munitions are already in use in Ukraine, by the Russians. The damage is being done no matter what. So why is it suddenly a problem when it’s the Ukranians, who are desperate for any advantage to keep their country theirs? They’re certainly not happy with having to use methods that damage their land, but they’ve made the decision that it’s a risk they’re willing to take in order to not be annexed by a brutal foreign power.

smh shoulda done order 66 when they had the chance

This is unironically actually true.

Yes.

The one Islamic tenet I can get behind. No more washing dishes! Death to the act of taking out the trash!
