    Lol if anybody else was doing what USA is doing, USA would be doing anything to stop that somebody else from doing what the USA is already doing. Fucking hypocrites

    • The United States view of nuclear proliferation is that the world can only be safe if only the United States has nuclear weapons.

      Because no other country can be trusted with nuclear weapons.

      In some ways, this world view makes you realize that North Korea and Iran might have a legit point to continue to develop nukes.

      I have been saying similar things about the USA and how they handle a number of things.

      If any majority Muslim nation was doing what Israel is doing, the USA would stop at nothing to stop them.

      Been true for at least three decades.

      Uh, what? Other countries are, Russia is. In fact we are both testing out satellite killers, it’s been ongoing and was reported on just a month back or so.

      Thats kind of the foundational precept of imperialism. You have the be the only one. Its not about autonomous entities entitled to their own self determination, its abour conquest and being the one at the top that can exploit all the others
