  1. Why does google post such inflammatory WOKE BS and expect no backlash!
    Elon what is wrong with this controlling media form and why don’t you you do anything about it like you did with twitter???????

  2. You could argue that Panama was a war crime. And in both Iraq and Panama that the lack of distinguishing civilian people and infrastructures violates international laws (ones that are considered required regardless of adoption of the resolution and that the US signed). But highway 80 isn't. You aren't required to allow enemies to retreat. You are only required to accept surrender and Fleeing the field of battle doesn't require a cease of combat. Allowing retreat is neither legally required or tactically smart (fleeing soldiers can and likely will regroup, bringing equipment and man power back to the enemy). Also the civilian deaths there were allegedly quite small (to the point they were arguably collateral).
    Aw the propaganda to build up to war. That girls english is quite good for someone who wouldn't speak english as a first language.
    Eh, both Bush's are war criminals. So is pretty much every other modern president except for maybe Carter.

  3. It's difficult to respect anyone who presents two lies in the first 24 seconds. 'countless deaths" is nothing but tired and grossly misapplied hyperbole and the fallback adjective of people too lazy to do worthwhile, accurate research. "newly inaugurated" voiceover for something occurring in December 1989. Inauguration occurs on or about January 20. The invasion was December 20 which is a full 11 months after inauguration. 24 seconds in I gave it a thumbs down rating then turned it off.

  4. Umm, not war crimes. Put this in perspective and you’ll see this came right after Sadam launched a missile at US forces in Saudi, killing 75. In addition, these were murderers, rapists, torturers and thieves, trying to make it back to Iraq with stolen goods and legitimate military assets, which could’ve prolonged the war. So no, this is nowhere in the realm of war crimes. Your video takes a VERY small and hand picked sliver of the situation to make a false point.

  5. Listening to a brainwashed 15 year old girl, is another lie, as Kuwaitis were financed secretly to spy on Iraq, as USA wanted to grab hold of the netural zone oil fields, where Iraq, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia have their interests. Kuwaitis were pumping more oil barrels in a day compared to Iraq and Saudi Arabia. These oil barrels were sold very cheap to the West, President Saddam Hussein of Iraq had warned the Emir of Kuwait to stop the double standards and bring the prices of oil per barrel what was agreed at OPEC conferences, Kuwaiti Emir did not listen and provoked President Saddam Hussein to invade Kuwait, which is technically part of Iraq, divided by Western powers during colonial rule. Bush and Blair should be helded for murder, ethnic cleansing, genocide, war crimes and hanged according to Islamic Law. This was a crusade from the West to the Islamic part of the world

  6. Considering that communist states PAID the US for weapons the COMMIES paid the US, the USSR and the other Communist regimes for weaponry, Communism threatened Democracy because COMMUNISM works wake up sheeple

  7. "The Highway of Death" was not a war crime. Retreating is a tactical maneuver and is NOT surrender. There is so much bullshit in this piece that it invalidates anything that might be accidentally true. What a total crock of shit.
