(Edit: I am merely relaying what they said, not that I in anyway subscribe to it)
Edit: Actually, others pointed out that at first the narrative was that Iran did it. That's indeed true that the media used that; perhaps one can even build up a timestamp of media reporting falseness here. I forgot which media reported the above lie first.
I'm so proud to be an American today :-(
I guess it was judged a success so more was deemed appropriate.
The USA has been dropping bombs on innocent people on average for the past 25 years every 15 minutes.
The only force capable of reining in the US’ out of control military industrial complex, is the American people themselves. Until they do, the atrocities continue unabated.
Use your democracy while you still can.
It's extremely difficult for any individual to affect any change. Really only the media has influence. Access to the media by individuals is usually extremely difficult.
That said. Voting got things to where they are there. Anybody who didn't vote in the past absolutely should do.
Just saying.. don't be too harsh on someone because they live in that country. This guy admitted shame for his country now. That's showing empathy. That's worth a lot. He should be praised and encouraged for showing empathy.
What the war criminals that have run your country for decades have done to other nations, they are now going to do to yours.
Protest, inform yourself, demand that your peers are informed, and do not for one instance just let apathy rule. Get out there on the streets every single time, write your representatives, use whatever tepid remains of your ‘democracy’ you have left. Divest yourself of any investments in the military industrial complex - and be damned sure you don’t support it, in any way whatsoever.
Demand justice for your own war criminals at a higher pitch and tempo than the call to eradicate cultures deemed inferior by those very war criminals.
What they do to other nations they will do to yours. Never forget this.
Some of it is publicly available on videos for 15+ years, nobody cares: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rXPrfnU3G0
Which, at the time I thought, yes its bad that US presidents almost all are willing to do war when it isn't a good idea, but Obama isn't the president right now and I think you can expect Trump to bomb some schools too man.
and here we are.
As an side, fuck every single person here that supported or made excuses for the GOP in the last two decades, I will never forgive you.
Obama the Christian?
Now officials tell the public "we used old maps" when bombing a school with kids. That's a deliberate lie. It wastes our time to even want to lend any credibility to wanting to believe such a lie.
That's... not how GPS works.
