What’s severely flawed is the U.S. thinking we have some sort of “moral high ground” after 17 years of war and killing over a million people in the region.
Further, who appointed us the world’s policeman and who decided that the use of chemical weapons to kill people was worse than killing people with napalm or phosphorous bombs or anything else? Why are we selective when it comes to our policing and our supposed outrage?
Shall we bomb South Africa because they are essentially trying to genocide and steal the land of white farmers? How about Saudi Arabia, for bombing and starving children in Yemen? How about Israel for using Palestinians as target practice?
That’s some severely flawed thinking.
