If Americans ever learned about not invading foreign nations and killing a bunch of people and making them hate you... They wouldn't invade foreign nations and kill a bunch of people and make them hate them.

We kinda did, why invade when you can just give a faction that benefits you shittons of diplomatic and financial support to achieve power, then military aid to keep the population from resisting. But this type of approach doesn't work against countries that don't let it, hence why you see a different track for Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, North Korea.

Also: MAGA doesn't like subtle actions like that. Soft power is gay! /S

Arming and funding a faction so they can take over their country, then fighting a war against that same group 1-2 decades later, and America.
Name a more iconic duo.

Kissinger strikes again! This time from Hell! In theaters tomorrow. And next week. And probably next year.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 6 points 2 weeks ago

kissinger has largely been replaced by benjamin netanyahu.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

I’m not sure what you mean? They know very well what they’re doing, and chancellor Lockheed Martin expressly supports it.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 2 weeks ago

or becoming a puppet of Israel's benjamin.

The way the rope is braided out of Trump's hair is wild

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

Or whatever is happening to the background of the guy next to Trump.

I miss shitty photoshop. AI memes just ain’t the same.

[–] faintwhenfree@lemmus.org 11 points 2 weeks ago

They might have if when the public demonstrations wee happening and protestor were being murdered in the street and government cut internet. If US had gone in and killed leadership and no civilian casualties. I'm sure Iranian people would have greeted them as liberators.

[–] abbiistabbii@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 weeks ago

George Bush at least made excuses about going into a country for oil companiea. Trump straight up said "we want their oil".

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 7 points 2 weeks ago

Sad thing about this meme is neither of those war criminals will ever face a single consequence for their crimes.

[–] tinyvoltron@discuss.online 6 points 2 weeks ago

He fell for one of the classic blunders. Maybe next he'll go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

The fucked up thing is Iraq was, by and large, ready to welcome us as liberators. Bush and co were just so focused on the oil they neglected tf out of every form of diplomacy.

Behind the bastards did a great run down of what happened. Basically, we snubbed their religious leaders, cut basic services, and left unnecessary destruction in our wake. We also left the Iraqi army to rot. Instead of getting a large amount of well trained and armed men to do something productive, we left them to do what they did.

But hey,! Stock prices were great! Haliburtin made a killing! Still no wmd's tho....
