Sunday’s successful blockade run could signal to international shippers that it’s reasonably safe to resume operations from Ukrainian ports.

We're still doing Guantanamo Bay. Abu graib is another one. If youre looking for direct comparisons. We also went around teaching puppet governments how to torture dissidents.

Not to mention that we saved the Unit 731 scientists for their expertise.

Oh my god. Gitmo, compared to Unit 731.

You need to read some history.

I have. The US is much better at keeping its prisoners alive so they can be tortured longer, but they have had longer to practice and Unit 731's notes.

If youre not willing to accept that, we could also go with the tuskegee experiment, nuclear testing around indigenous communities and then studying the results or agent orange, killing millions of people over the last twenty years, special forces routinely kidnapping and raping to death minors around US military bases, whatever floats your boat

Still not as bad, oh it's serious stuff, but not on the level of 731.

You need to read more.

I've read a lot about it actually. I wonder if maybe you haven't read a lot about what the US has done to its prisoners.

Also are you really saying unit 731 was worse than killing 4 million vietnamese, or helping pol pot kill a quarter of his country, or killing 20 percent of all Koreans and installing a military puppet in the south? Or using sanctions to cause mass starvation of an entire country that we've spent twenty years occupying or destroying?
