[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]America’s post-9/11 wars have led to more than 4.5 million deaths, according to a major new report from the Costs of War Project at Brown University. https://watson.brown.edu/costsofwar/files/cow/imce/papers/2023/Indirect%20Deaths.pdf Roughly 1 million of these deaths came from direct combat in war zones across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Somalia, and Yemen, while the remaining 3.5 million are “indirect deaths” that resulted from the conflicts’ “destruction of economies, public services, and the environment,” according to the report. The sobering findings highlight the long-term effects of the Global War on Terror, which has been the deadliest fight of the 21st century so far. The death toll, which Brown researchers described as a “reasonable and conservative estimate,” rivals that of major post-WWII conflicts, including the wars in Korea and Vietnam.[/quote] Thanks for that fascinating, but ultimately useless post. This thread is about how Russia illegally invaded the sovereign nation of Ukraine and needs to leave. Your post was meant to derail the conversation and is a classic tool of disinformation. [b]But then again you’re either paid to post it or are a bot.[/b] Sadly, as you know, Russia is really weakened at this point and your futile attempts at even influencing this thread away from the topic at hand have failed as miserably as your attempts to take Bakhmut.[/quote] Because no one can disagree with you otherwise?[/quote] Because the odds are you are a bot or a paid shill to post those messages. It’s obvious that Russia is the aggressor and should leave. You carrying water for Russia indicates you are sick. Again, the most likely connection is that you’re a bot or paid propagandist or you are a sociopath.[/quote] So are all these folks bots, sociopaths or paid propagandists? An open letter calling for a swift diplomatic end to the war in Ukraine was published on Tuesday in the New York Times. The letter’s 14 signatories consisted mostly of former U.S. military officers and other national security officials, including Jack Matlock, Washington’s former ambassador to the Soviet Union; Ann Wright, a retired U.S. Army colonel and former diplomat; Matthew Hoh, a former Marine Corps officer and State Department official; and Ret. Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, who served as Secretary of State Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff. What about Jeffrey Sachs? Or Kissinger? [/quote] Most of those people you're citing like Matlock are doddering 90 year olds (even the youngest are in their late 70s) and haven't been involved in foreign policy for decades.[/quote] Like doddering has ever kept anyone from running America![/quote]
