    "You" were sowing.

    Sob story? "You" are reaping what you sowed.

    "You" systematically fucked up almost the entirety of the Middle East mostly because they had Black Gold (Bahrain was saved until now basically because there was no easy way to extract their signature resources, and their Black Gold was tougher to get to) and no real way to protect themselves. Country after country, invasion after invasion, instability, government toppling, famine, stealing resources, you name it. And yet now, about Muslims you claim that "the common characteristic that they ALL share is a POSITIVELY MURDEROUS IDEOLOGY" and therefore they, the collective "them", are the problem. Not the warmongering, the invasions, the actual warring, the backing of genocides, weapon proliferation and war profiteering, the ban lists, economic blockades, WMD lies etc.

    Yemen used to be very beautiful. Now it looks like a fucking pile of rubble and dead bodies. And here I was thinking only those Daesh assholes destroy cultural heritage as a mission statement. This is shameful on a whole new scale. But it's just a footnote on what's going on globally.

    An actual world war. Way different from covertly toppling governments and installing the ones you want, destabilizing country after country in the process while claiming to be the untouchable World Police and only admitting you did so 50 years in the future. Again, details indicate why these are different things.

    Also, rare earth metals were not as valuable back then as they are now. If they were, maybe perhaps today's scapegoats would have been the Shinto and the Buddhists as well for good measure instead of the Muslims



    Newton's third law applies metaphorically as well, and you would have to add "unintended" and "unexpected" to it

    And how does any of this explain burning a Jordanian alive in a cage and broadcasting the video on the internet?

    You linked a story about a school bus bombing....did they do that to teach America a lesson?

    Were Islamists pushing for a worldwide caliphate before 1776?

    Do you understand what an extremist is?

    Hint: it's right there in the name. Burning people in cages sounds pretty extreme to me, don't you think?

    With lockheed martin bombs. Not as a lesson, for profit.

    Yes. But your average muslim would say he's "just a guy". See the problem now?

    Me too. But not to your average Pakistani

    Not as a lesson, for profit.
    My question was....Did the Yemen government bomb a school bus to teach America a lesson?

    You say no, they did it for profit.

    Wut?

    Mmm, the Yemeni government did not bomb any schoolbuses. It was the US backed Saudi-UAE coalition who did

    With a Lockheed Martin bomb.

    This, among many more shenanigans.
