Right To Left

Has nothing to do with "moral authority"...has more to do with economic and military power.   Even Canada used "moral authority" to bomb the locals in Europe and Middle East.

Is that you, China?

After Trump and now the same crap with Biden and Democrats in charge, the rest of the world....including allies like Germany are understanding that R2P is and has always been a complete sham, and that the US is just acting in its own strategic interests. 

And that's why you're losing allies to your cause! Because allies are only 'allied' as long as they have a share in the stakes also. And though Americans and even most Canadians seem completely unaware of it, Canada is as quietly as possible, just as much a bad actor on the world stage as the US is! 

Quick example: Canada recognized fake Venezuelan president - Guiado even prior to the statement from the State Dept.. Because Guiado had been talking to execs at Canadian-based Barrick Gold. And they liked what he had to say and told Justin to get out his rubber stamp and recognize Guiado as Venezuela's leader. 

So, if you're going to deflect to Canada has no moral authority either, you're wasting your time! I know, and I hope most Canadians are smart enough to know that Canada as international peacekeeper is and likely always has been a myth!

The fact that Fiona Hill is yet another foreign-born Neocon foreign policy expert has some people wondering why all of the leaders of this movement for ever-expanding military spending and imperial wars are so rarely drawn from US-born citizens.

Although there have been "Scoop Jackson" Democrats since the Vietnam Era days, until Russiagate gave Dems an opportunity to stop pretending to oppose war, they were never competing with Republicans before, when it comes to advocating wars and promoting misnamed "Defense" spending before Third Way Democrats (Bill and Hill) came along, and convinced Democrats "don't worry, there will be no new draft, so your ass isn't on the line and you can worry about other concerns. New wars will be fought on the ground with foreign proxies and the small, economically portion of America that have to enlist."
