The MSM also forgot what was happening in Vietnam after the U.S. exited. Every single civilian death was overly reported up until then. But afterward, when the communists swept down from the north and killed a million South Vietnamese, there was nary a peep. Mission accomplished.
That said, at least they did put a stop to Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge, and realized in the 80s that Communism doesn’t work.
Iran as well. We got rid of the Shah because of “human rights abuses” and ignored the human rights abuses of the people that took over. Carter only cared about rights if it was an ally. IOW he really didn’t care about human rights.
At least we didn’t fly airstrikes on behalf of the VC and NVA.
Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. They also drove out the ethnic Chinese, and wreaked holy hell on the Montagnards. The Hmong in Laos, and everybody including everybyody in Cambodia fared just as poorly.

Thus confirming, for anyone that didn’t already know, who and what the MSM really represent.
