      Everything old is new again. The tactics of terror bombing and inflicting maximum suffering on a civilian population have changed little since WW2. Most of the NATO bombing doctrine was informed or created by the same Nazi monsters who used those methods during the war.

      I work with a lib whose eyes literally glaze over when I talk about Libya and how utterly unjust we were with them and he murmurs something about Gaddafi being a dictator who imprisoned/executed opposition, and he actually has no idea if that happened but it’s an African country so he’s taking a ‘safe bet’ that that was at play. He literally knows nothing about our actions over there or the why, but he’s a lib, through and through.
