"We keep our troops wherever we want" -Vladimir Putin (Source)
Geez, Vlad. Who do you think you are--America?
And then there's this bag o' goodies:
"since 1945, the US has tried to overthrow more than 50 governments, many of them democratically elected; grossly interfered in elections in 30 countries; bombed the civilian populations of 30 countries; used chemical and biological weapons; and attempted to assassinate foreign leaders." -John Pilger (Source)
The truth is that I've become almost completely cynical and hopeless about the global Hunger Game of Thrones War of Terror that is being waged against the population of earth. Rich people with massively lethal toys make me sick.
If you haven't read Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut, I'd highly recommend it. If you don't have time, I'll leave you with a sentiment that I think should be plastered on billboards in all first world nations and on the walls of high school campuses:
"I have told my sons that they are not under any circumstances to take part in massacres, and that the news of massacres of enemies is not to fill them with satisfaction or glee. I have also told them not to work for companies which make massacre machinery, and to express contempt for people who think we need machinery like that." -Kurt Vonnegut
