Not only was American soldiers constantly shooting wild knowing full well we all were civilians, UN soldiers had unlimited access to children and spared them no mercy, pedophiles!

16,000 brutally killed by american troops. Fast forward 5 years, and American tax payers are supplying the very same warlords with weapons, later placing them in government.

So who was America looking after again?

And just to make it clear, the body of the troops were dragged around by ordinary citizens,not gangsters

Such blatant lie and another American president trying to cover up the injustice made against us with just and morality. The day he is referring to, I was there. Despite being tormented by ruthless warlords, never have I ever witnessed such cruelty of that of American and UN soldiers. While the naive public in America honor these murderous acts. Not only was

@gorengyan I just got back from Afghanistan two months ago

@MaxamillianArturo no i haven't, but my heart goes to the military men and women and their families. Have you? If you have, then you should know, it's not all that glorious. Not all American ex-military men are proud of US foreign policies that they have to follow and fight for.

[MaxamillianArturo]

@gorengyan You ever serve in the military?

[gorengyan]

@MaxamillianArturo so what? I don't know if you're American but American foreign policy is riddled with flaws, self interest and corporate interest. So many American foreign policies from the past and up to the present is just murderous. Read your books.

@gorengyan If not for American heroism, you'd be speaking German or Arabic right now pal.
