So the Bush’s and all the presidents who want something to stop trending they just bomb countries??
Well that's been common knowledge since I first took an interest in geopolitics, several decades ago. We didn't call it "stop trending" back then but yeah.
Wag the dog
Why do you think the US has been at war for like 95% of its existence?
because it's a country. south korea has never not been at war. it is just a natural consequence of being a State
Yeah I remember when South Korea traveled accross the ocean and land to invade Poland. Your usual state behavior. /s
pick any country and look at its history. including yours. they are always fucking at war, either invading, being invaded, or asking another state do it for them. my point being, the korean war (what created south korea) has never ended, which i'd wager is causative to the dismal quality of life in both south and north korea even though it has long ago ceased being an active hot war.
You are not exactly supposed to look at most historical problems with the mindset "We should repeat that."
my dude, i'm not saying "hey let's do this", i'm just saying "this is"
Ah carry on then. My bad.
