"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

If we should be so lucky as to be able to loot that God forsaken country. Far apart from actually moving the resources out of country. Instead we are there as the "good guys". It's sunk cost fallacy. Not worth our time.

Galloism wrote:Trump lawyer: "Watch your back, bitch."

Marc Kasowitz, President Trump’s personal attorney on the Russia case, threatened a stranger in a string of profanity-laden emails Wednesday night.

The man, a retired public relations professional in the western United States who asked not to be identified, read ProPublica’s story this week on Kasowitz and sent the lawyer an email with the subject line: “Resign Now.’’

Kasowitz replied with series of angry messages sent between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Eastern time. One read: “I’m on you now. You are fucking with me now Let’s see who you are Watch your back , bitch.”

In another email, Kasowitz wrote: “Call me. Don’t be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you don’t call, you’re just afraid.” And later: “I already know where you live, I’m on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.”


I thought you were just kidding. As somebody else said, it's fps tier shit talk from a 12 year old.

Because stealing the natural resources of the people you've been bombing for the better part of the last two decades is such an upstanding thing to do. And totally legal. Such a great idea. The best idea. Nobody knew it could be such a good idea.

International law is a meme and not as if we paid it much attention under Obama anyway. They hate our guts for the most part in that country. What difference does it make if we loot it? That being said, it's not practical and the word of Erik Prince is not worth the paper it's written on. We should just walk away or put the worst warlord we can find in charge if stability is a concern.

You realize that the US benefits greatly from following international law, yes? Refusing to recognize any authority or convention save for those they want to in the moment would hurt US interest at home and abroad.

If it was actually beneficial for the US to say "fuck it and this international law shit, we do what we want, when we want, and fuck anyone who tries to stop us", then they would be doing it.

The US has bombed and plundered nations of their natural resources before? Why is this the first I'm hearing of this!?

It's for states that benefit from the status quo, and the USA is foremost among those states.

Not to mention Camicon, weren't you trying to convince us earlier about what a just war Afghanistan was? What is this stuff about "bombing" as if we were the bad guys.

The US doesn't disregard international law as it pertains to international relations, which is sort of the whole point of international law. It's creep into domestic policy is a more recent evolution, and quite secondary to it's primary function of regulating behaviour between states.

Blowing up civilians with airstrikes certainly doesn't make you the good guys, regardless of whether or not the conflict on the whole is just.
