I love the fact that you all have a notepad somewhere with written statements for these subject. Don't make it to obvious.

What is the point you are trying to make with that article? That western nations are not perfect? That because western nations are taking advantage of others that it is okay for countries to commit mass murder? That authoritarian regimes are born from western actions? That inequality all around the world is born from the actions of western nations?Tell me what is your angle and what do you want me to do with the info you provide which is information that I already knew.

In regards to your other posts;

Criticizing journalism is okay. Not taking everything at face value is a good practice to have.

But willfully ignoring history and everything that has been said and written about it is just still and again people purposely closing their eyes.

I still do not understand why someone would not take the time to actually read the literature and watch the footage of how hurtful these regimes have been through the years.
