    I don’t think anyone disputed that Russia committed a war crime against Ukraine by invading. However literally no Western country is saying the same thing about Israel and the US’s completely unprovoked attack on Iran.

    Not to mention Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza which the West are doing nothing to stop even though they are obliged to act under the Genocide Convention.

      You don’t need to fight. You are both right. No one in this thread is in the club making these decisions.

        I agree we are just micturating in the wind but US corporate media is taken with a delusional bloodlust and it’s important to respond with facts in the face of manufactured consent for bombing a country that is no threat to the US.

          The sooner you realize you, me, and the other person are all on the same team, the sooner you will start to be able to change minds.

          The person you’re talking to probably knows all about corporate media and its influence. Just like you probably know a bunch about state run media and its influence.
