Colin Powell helped torch villages in My Lai.
From his own Memoir.
Here is Colin Powell using the "Nuremberg Defense"
He didn't accept "ears for beers".... what a civilized, decent man!
America is a country that wars against farmers being literate. "Fighting communism anywhere in the world" is literally "we need access to raw materials using child slaves"

"ends were justified even if the means were flawed"
The guy he was helping literally said "we need four or five Hitlers in Vietnam"

But Colin Powell, still thinks the "fight against communism was just"
This begins with the number of massacres that we talked about..
You know how Colin Powell was just obeying orders.. well those who did the massacre were under his command.. obeying orders...
What is the age in which people were called "Military-age male"

The youngest one was age 3.
How did they judge "efficiency"?

Answer: Body count.
He also admitted to bombing areas where there was any urine!
Here is Colin Powell in his book...
Highway of death in Iraq.
This is from Colin Powell's own book!
He lobbied to arm the contras!
What a psycho!
The contras should have all been shot.
Right before he invaded Grenada.
Grenada's only problem was that it was a "threat of a good example"
"The people of Grenada, the leadership of Grenada are predominately black. It will offer a dangerous appeal to black people in the USA"
Horrible.
He apparently hated Africa.
Another excerpt from Colin Powell's book. If you want o see what kind of hedonistic lifestyle officers led in Vietnam, listen to our interview with Merideth lair

Because of US sanctions, US owned companies won't sell them the privatized security key and so when they try to access American sites, these sites interpret it as a ddos attack and they time it out.
Here I access sites from the DPRK and download two nice videos and a cook book in real time.

There are about 6-10 companies..and barrier to entry is super high and they have a monopoly

No it is not. Chomsky once called Lenin a "right-wing deviation" except Chomsky did not know the definition of the word "right-wing deviation" .. which is a very technical term with regards to marxist-leninist parties.
No offense to Chomsky fans..but they have a bit of a god phenomenon where they assume "because Chomsky said it it must be true"

Without checking the citations. So our friend here really does believe that Chomsky's critique has to do with documented authoritarianism..+ Image
They don't understand how this is a word salad.. this requires multiple entities to have time-machines...

but let's start from somewhere. Image

Thread of all the times @RashaAlAqeedi has whitewashed US occupation of Iraq and/or called for enhanced involvement in Iraq.
This one is hilarious
A bit of anti-shia bigotry thrown in.

In 2007, Samia Gul was gang raped.

In 2009, her father was jailed for trying to bring her rapists to justice. This all happened under the warlord Ismael Khan's turf.

The US backed him.
Yep. Image
Think about the implications for the Afghan police if young boys can be used to "honey trap" them... Image
