I'm a baby Marxist, and I'm not particularly knowledgeable on AES countries. I've really enjoyed finding effort posts debunking propaganda and talking about the actual state of them, but dredging them up with the search feature isn't particularly effective. I'd love to hear what people have to say, especially about China and the DPRK, since those are the ones that come up most frequently.

Trying to prosecute the soldier who attempted to prevent the my lai massacre. Saying Iraq had WMDs. Bribing a teenage girl to lie about seeing soldiers throw babies out of incubators.

definitely involved in whitewashing my lai and was chairman of the joint chiefs during desert storm, no way he wasn't at least tangentially involved in the nayirah testimony. yeah, your post reminded me what a piece of shit that dude was.
