probably deserved it, after all they were 'no angels':

You're conflating the big geostrategical decisions with local atrocities committed by henchmen on the ground, which happen in every Middle Eastern war.

Why doesn't Germany intervene?

fsa scum that years ago you were crying for the us to back and arm them

lmao pls no, we dont need another world war started

Let's just shit on our allies

'conflating'?! are you suggesting that they are unrelated? it's pretty disgusting that you're trying to rationalise this as 'middle easterners being middle easterners' when this whole thread discusses the differences between the various factions... so please spare me those excuses, whe have a pretty clear causation chain here...



probably because we haven't created those problems in the first place. because we did not go there and make empty promises to the kurds. because we didn't send our troops there to protect oil fields. because our resources are strained because we have to deal with the humanitarian crises that you guys created down there while simultaneously closing your borders... what a stupid question really...

Did the United States promise the Kurds that they'd give them a state? Or did they promise that they'd fight Turkey for them? Neither, obviously, is true.

The Kurdish question is hundreds of years in the making, the United States, certainly, didn't create it.

Germany is a wealthy country, if the United States's inaction is so intolerable to you, act. But of course it's easy to criticize the response of others rather than tackle the problem yourself.

The United States has paid for the defense of your country for half a century after Germany started a war that left 50 million dead. It's time to pay up.

no no, leave it be. just call it even with the only nation to start two out of two world wars. then add up all the continental conflict that originated out of the rhineland before the second reich.. even attila would have envied such a lust for blood

you can't possibly be that naive. inaction would have been 'tolerable', but that's not what america did.

you created the power vacuum that lead to the forming of ISIS, you toppled regimes and invaded countries based on lies. you are very much directly responsible for this mess, while now pretending it's none of your business (except the oil of course, you don't mind sending your boys and girls to 'protect' that), just because one draft dodging cunt told you so.

you close your borders while the rest of the world has to deal with the crises you created. if anything, you should be paying us - but i'm not surprised that ppl who have been brainwashed with simplistic 'america good, we protect the world' narratives their entire lives simply can't see that, if they haven't learned to think critically and question their ruling class' motivation...
