I get it, some insane dictator like Hitler is trying to take over Europe.. OK, US intervention is probably warranted.. but what justifies a US intervention into a foreign country today? What is the standard international governments should abide by? Hey, this guy is treating his people like shit. OK, does that warrant a military intervention? Hey, this guy is enslaving his people!... Yeah, that probably does warrant intervention.. Hey, this guy is starving his people, but he's selling us oil at such a low price!!!!... Yeah, that warrants intervention, except our government benefits from it, sooooo?
OK, So we've established countries that violate human rights definitely deserved to be intervened in... I mean, except if they give us shit.. though... How are we going to intervene in those countries if they're giving us shit? ... They're not going to give us shit anymore if we tell them to cut the shit out...
So... I guess we'll just keep taking the shit they're giving us and sweep whatever they're doing under the rug?... OK, fuck it..
But we're still the moral arbiter, right?
