Words have trouble expressing how incorrect this is. An excess death rate of 1% of the total population is fucking massive and incredibly disruptive, even if it was just “1% of the population chose to voluntarily go to the local suicide booth after extensive therapy and saying goodbye to their families” rather than “1% of the population has been murdered under the rubble of their own homes by an occupying power”

Fun (/s) fact! Israel has killed a higher percentage of Gaza’s civilian population after some four months than the percentage of the Japanese civilian population killed by the US in all of WW fucking 2, including the mass terror bombing campaigns and the atomic bombings (1.2% of the civilian population vs. .9% of the civilian population)

I mean, does it, though? Latin America right now is more US friendly than it has been probably since the start of the Cold War.

This arrogant and imperialist attitude from US politicians is a prime example of why there are enduring and justified antipathies in Latin America, but it’s not new, and it’s not particularly strong (on either side) at the moment.

“Our economic space”

Whatever happened to the free market?

Oh, right, Republicans have no beliefs.
