Thanks wasn’t sure, Europe had a buy 1 get 1 free because it made the euro unstable since not all countries fell equally hard after the “poof”.

Was what you call the subprime mortgage crisis what happened in 2008 or so?

Thank you for sharing this, laughed my ass off

Is this a zero sum sum? So more 10 billion for canada is 10 less billion for usa?

A bright business man might turn this problem around by buying another truck for his business, an even brighter one would then start a new business doing the exact same thing except this new business only does roofing for nazi’s and an even brighter one might charge these nazi’s extra because he comes by your house in a secondhand (wink wink) swastikar.

I’m not saying don’t blame the hijackers, I’m saying blame the hijackers for the hijacking (which in turn killed thousands) and blame Bin Laden for planning it and getting those hijackers to do the hijacking. They’re both guilty, but without Bin Laden ordering 9/11 those hijackers wouldn’t have done it. I’m not saying they wouldn’t have something else bad. I’m not saying they’re innocent. But Bin Laden did something worse than those individual hijackers.

Thanks, for your summary. I think he’s right about different kinds of guilt being judged in different ways. If someone commits a crime and gets away with it, that doesn’t mean that person will never feel the guilt. It sounds like a good read.

No, by that logic you can’t blame the dealers landlord because they were just trying to make some money.

But not every soldiers’ first priority are justifying their actions. Please note that the title of this post is insinuating that all veterans are to blame, not some or even the majority of them. Also note the title omits the bosses, the people who gave the orders.That is why I replied. We would only disagree if you’d believe the boss isn’t guilty because he didn’t do the execution of his plans.

I fully agree.

I’m saying we shouldn’t blame the soldiers on the choices of their leaders, I’m not saying we shouldn’t blame the soldiers for their own choice. I totally agree they could’ve chosen to not to follow orders. I’m not saying they are innocent. But their role is not comparable to the role of the people giving orders.

O i totally agree, this is exactly why i started with ‘this is might get a lot of downvotes’. But the crimes on the pictures where not crimes by individual soldiers. These things were done by individuals who were told to. I’m not saying that makes them innocent, I’m saying they weren’t the most guilty. The most guilty in my opinion are the men who scheme and think up of plans like this, and then order others to execute it.

Never heard of this, thanks

No that would be saying they didn’t do anything bad because doing what is asked of you is always good.

It’s not fair to blame the soldiers and act as if the people who gave the leaders their power are innocent.

Well, you’ve already killed one innocent person, so you can go ahead and kill a million more since you’re already a bad person anyway. Much logic.

This might get a lot of down votes but I want to say I don’t think it’s fair to blame the soldiers in the field for the choices of the decision makers in the office. Those horrible events were unwanted ‘byproducts’ of the goal of men with evil plans, they were not veterans going off-book. In other words, these veterans did what was asked of them. I’m not saying they didn’t do some very bad things, but they aren’t the people that should be ‘thanked’.

Even after reading this headline twice I couldn’t understand it, so here is the first few lines of the article for anyone with the same issue:

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe says a plan by the United States to restore Russia’s ability to sell fertilizer is a backchannel that funds Ukrainian death and suffering.

“This is the most disturbing action that I think we’ve seen from (U.S. President Donald Trump) since his election,” Moe told legislators Tuesday.

“In essence, what he is doing is funding (Russian President) Vladimir Putin’s regime … and funding the death of Ukrainians.”

I don’t see Erdogan being very happy about this map tho
