    Oh that’s horrible. During the Arab spring, when Assad was literally levelling Aleppo killing his own population and destroying cultural heritage to booth, some people wanted the US to intervene. How could one ever again work with such inhumane colleagues? /s

      Yes very terrible. I wont downplay it.

      Now, did the US sign a legally binding document in 1945 that forbid wars of aggression without UN authorization, yes or no?

      Watch as this question gets ignored.

          Really every warmonger can be defeated by the Socratic method. Which is why they constantly avoid it. Declare that a problem exists, declare that violence is the only way whatsoever to get rid of the problem, and then fuck off to hang out with their military contractor buddies.

          The Iraq war could have been stopped with Congress just asking some basic questions, you know if they wanted to.
