So you make a moral judgement against someone in another country and that gives you the right to authorize overwhelming military force against the people living in that country without any justified self-defense reason or proportional response. Got it. You are a psychopath.

It depends on the country. It's not random. We know how these regimes are.

“Iranian people want us to keep bombing” -you

Don't be a God damned pacifist. If the governor of New York secedes and declares it illegal for Muslims to convert to Christianity, what do expect us to do, litigate it with the UN? Even if they do it democratically without attacking Pennsylvania, that doesn't mean everyone else has to put up with living next to their cultural pollution. Yes, if 5% of the population asks to be liberated, the rest of the world has a God-given right to eliminate the 95% who support the regime.

You have moral permission to set red lines and bomb the shit out of people that cross them, especially when they're in the way of straits that are critical to global trade (that means you @Solomonsatoshi). That's how you deter the psychopaths that are worse than me.

There is no moral permission to bomb innocent people.

Free trade and remove all sanctions globally and the world will be much more peaceful.

You mean "open the strait"? So if some group, say the Houthis just as a random example, are hypothetically conducting regular attacks on merchant vessels traversing the strait, how do you get them to stop? You'd rather deal with them case-by-case as individuals and let it drag on forever than cut off their funding at the roots?

We're all responsible for the government that we have. If people don't want to get bombed, they have to reform their government so that it stops provoking the US.

reply

Yup and it’s all working out great right? The US military force has succeeded in opening the strait?

Might makes right?

The civilian casualties are justified?

You need to repent bro

reply

Yeah it worked out. We killed their top guy. And we didn't kill as many civilians as they did. They were killing them before the war even started.
