350 children die from malnutrition every hour. Let's bomb Syria!

[Scootaloo]

23. I'm talking about a sustained barrage of missile strikes against Syria

With the goal - asked by the Senate - of regime change. I'm speaking of the dozens of posters like yourself calling to "bomb them into the stone age" and "kill them all."

We will be targeting people. Regardless of our "intent" - intent is fucking meaningless, it's an out for weaselly scumbags and corpse-fuckers who love war and hate peace to claim that all the dead civilians are excusable, are collateral, don't matter, look at the school we'll have built in twelve years.

Explosions don't discriminate, and the united States has a storied history of blowing up innocent people and then saying "well they looked like the bad guy, so we're still cool!" as we're doing in Yemen, Afghanistan, and Pakistan as we speak, as we were doing in Iraq under both Bushes and Clinton (though to be fair Clinton mostly starved and diseased them to death, nice guy that Clinton) as we were doing with our support of death squads in Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Colombia under Reagan, as we did with Carter's assistance to the mujahadeen in Afghanistan, all the fucking way back to our nation's roots.

You can pretend that we won't kill anyone, and that everyone we kill is inherently a "bad guy" all you want. Dismiss them as non-human targets. All you're doing is exposing yourself as the actual nonhuman in this discourse.
