Nope.

Those questions are not tough for them at all. The propaganda has it covered and they will give some version of "we tried our gosh darned best to bring the savages freedom and democracy but their barbarian culture was simply too primitive".

Its pretty hard at this conjunction in time, they used to be able to get away justifying these interventions with the "stopping genocide" card, but they can't say that now that they're enabling Israel. The facade of virtuousness has fallen.

Never ask a nato supporter who Adolf heusinger was.

NATO wasn't involved in Iraq were they?

[-] davel@lemmy.ml 32 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Not NATO, countries that just so happened to be members of NATO for completely unrelated reasons don’t even worry about it.

Bush desperately tried to tie saddam to al-qaeda so he could trigger article 5 by claiming 9/11 was an act of aggression. That didn't pan out but the empires most loyal dogs still went with the us on their massmurder campaign. See the "coalition of the willing"

Never ask an EU supporter about why their own country doesn't get to decide things for its self

That list of nations is very short.

[-] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 3 weeks ago

Is certainly longer than Russia list, but they're the baddies right?

Gotta love 2025. Is this an alt-right post or an alt-left post? No one can tell. Horseshoe theory, etc etc.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 18 points 3 weeks ago

The right is pro-NATO, as NATO is the main millitant arm propping up western imperialism, and the left is anti-NATO for the same reasons. There's no "alt-left," lol.

Anyone against NATO is against Western imperialism and would be considered a "leftist" by Western standards (just humane and ethical for the rest of the world). I don't see what can be misunderstood here.
