  If Americans ever learned about not invading foreign nations and killing a bunch of people and making them hate you… They wouldn’t invade foreign nations and kill a bunch of people and make them hate them.

    We kinda did, why invade when you can just give a faction that benefits you shittons of diplomatic and financial support to achieve power, then military aid to keep the population from resisting. But this type of approach doesn’t work against countries that don’t let it, hence why you see a different track for Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, North Korea.

      Arming and funding a faction so they can take over their country, then fight a war against that same group 1-2 decades later, and America.
      Name a more iconic duo.

    I’m not sure what you mean? They know very well what they’re doing, and chancellor Lockheed Martin expressly supports it.

  He fell for one of the classic blunders. Maybe next he’ll go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

  They might have if when the public demonstrations wee happening and protestor were being murdered in the street and government cut internet. If US had gone in and killed leadership and no civilian casualties. I’m sure Iranian people would have greeted them as liberators.

  George Bush at least made excuses about going into a country for oil companiea. Trump straight up said “we want their oil”.

  Sad thing about this meme is neither of those war criminals will ever face a single consequence for their crimes.
