  I’m glad that at least one oppressor gets to the “find out” part. I’m sad it’s not mainly the people they’ve been oppressing that are doing it.

  Let’s hope that changes when it’s the others’ turn.

    That’s not how it works. Oppressors dethroned by US meddling (whether military, intelligence, or a combination of both) will always be replaced by other oppressors and/or civil war sooner or later.

    There’s literally no upside to this imperialist mess for regular people of any involved country.

    SUPER lucrative for arms dealers, mercenaries, and the politicians they own, though.

      That’s not how it works.

      How what works? My feelings about the situation?

        I was referring to the fungible nature of oppression, assuming that you’re against oppression itself rather than just the specific oppressors who may or may not find out.

        My apologies for the misunderstanding if you do NOT in fact care whether or not oppression will be decreased as a result of this fresh batch of war crimes.
