If there’s one thing we can see from American foreign policy it’s that bombing people doesn’t stop human rights violations but fuck if we won’t give it another go

Didn’t work in Korea but maybe it’ll work in Vietnam

Didn’t work in Vietnam but maybe it’ll work in Laos

Didn’t work in Laos but maybe it’ll work in Cambodia

Didn’t work in Cambodia but maybe it’ll work in Iraq

Didn’t work in Iraq but maybe it’ll work in Bosnia

Didn’t work in Bosnia but maybe it’ll work in Somalia

Didn’t work in Somalia but maybe it’ll work in Afghanistan

Didn’t work in Afghanistan but maybe it’ll work in Iraq this time

Didn’t work in Iraq this time either but maybe it’ll work in Libya

Didn’t work in Libya but maybe it’ll work in Syria

I think the conclusion we need to draw here is that these military interventions were never *supposed* to “work” in the sense that they were not *actually* waged for humanitarian ends. That was a cover used to inspire the masses to support them. These were imperialist interventions meant to assert American control.
