      You drug it into this.

      To be clear, discussing the Vietnam war is just fine, and more than that, important. But this isnt that.

      Edit a distinct thread on such a topic is welcome and appropriate.

        I brought is up because I am unsure where the line of genocide is especially since wars that involve the US tend to have loads of civilian deaths.

          Over 100,000 civilians died in Iraq and Afghanistan during “the war on terror”.

          That’s worth it because of 9/11 tho /s

          The US does a lot of war crimes. They’ve just been historically more powerful than the people who prosecute war crimes.
