    I remember how every single US newsmedia were faithful attack dogs for the lead up to the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and then when things went south they issued no mea culpas, they just pretended they were always against it and the public just accepts that it’s true.

      These liberals who watched the us media manufacture consent for war in Iraq and still give credibility to what the warmongers say about the resistance axis and the entity are putting their chauvinism on full display. It doesn't matter how many people the us and the colony kill, how many children they starve to death. They'll be on board until it ends because surely the media that lied about all the other warcrimes is right this time, barbarians are at the gates and the children must die to protect civilization. Then they'll watch a little documentary in 15 years and feel a little maudlin. Fucking grotesque cowards.
