You said a mouthful. I’ve said pretty much the same, it wasn’t welcome. The Serbs were monsters, Gaddafi was rehabilitated then demonised and brutally murdered in board daylight in public, did you hear him say what he did about Sadam?
You could be next, he tells them. And he was.
Egypt stood up to be counted. Syria just won’t play dead. Afghanistan will have to learn to live with itself and love the Taliban. The best course of action is stay out of the way, and let islam devour itself.
Saddam was demonised, Milosevici was demonised , Gaddafi was demonised, Mubarak was demonised, and now V.Putin is demonised ... Any leader the US hate, is a “hitler”
I don’t think those were angels, on the contrary, but in geopolitics , there there is an unwritten rule “Better deal with the devil you know, than with the next one you don’t”.
The US must pay attention, it is not the absolute super-power it was in 1990, at the dissolution of Soviet Union, and one day a president like say, Obama, can be also considered a “hitler” and war criminal , for the extra-judiciary assassinations using drones in Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Kenya and only God know where else.
