Why do world leaders need to take sides?

@Powderflask Why will people die?

@Bettzsyy for some reason particularly,the us, foreign leaders send foreign soldiers to die in other countries for other people’s problems. Vietnam and Korea come to mind

@Powderflask Much of the problems in the Middle East have roots in Western colonialism.

@Powderflask Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Somalia .........

@chrisCA ok. I’m not going to pretend to know all that and the history of it, just saying if they want to carpet bomb and massacre each other that’s their business

@Bettzsyy If the conflict in Gaza threatened the World's oil supply, or shipping lanes, the West would move so fast, it would make your head spin.

@Powderflask Carpet bombing is an American specialty.

@chrisCA Sure. 🤘🏻

@chrisCA I don;t think the Palestinians can ''carpet bomb''

They have no planes.

Difficult to do without planes

@Powderflask Troops were sent to Korea, and Vietnam, because the Americans were afraid of the spread of Communism.
