What this highlights is a crucial tactic of the Endless War machine in DC: selective display of horrors. When the USG wants you to hate a country it wants to attack, they show you all their abuses. Meanwhile, they hide the similar/worse abuses of their allies (Saudi/Egypt). — PolitiTweet.org

Of course the images from Kabul in the wake of US withdraw are harrowing to any decent person. The 20-year US war itself created massive amounts of suffering and death as well. But the images of that remained mostly hidden, and thus never produced the same reaction. https://t.co/oPhTxuGRS6 — PolitiTweet.org

Any decent person is going to be emotionally affected by images of desperate people clinging to a C-130 to get out of Afghanistan. But consider how you'd feel about withdraw if forced to see all the people US air strikes killed and hear from their family members. — PolitiTweet.org
