The line I said was too general...you are right.
This is how people think unfortunately.
I don't believe Iran was right in taking hostages. I don't believe they are right to stir up anti-US death slogans.
I believe in diplomacy. And I do believe in compromise.
What we have to lose is this "us vs them" mentality.
Muslims unfortunately are the worse at this double standard stuff.
Look at Iraq. Sunnis started killing Shias there like crazy, them the Mahdi army started slaughtering sunnis as retaliation, the Sunnis ofcourse all then played victim card and talked about how monstrous shias are.
Of course if Mahdi Army didn't do that, there would be no balance, and Shias would've been slaughtered even more.
Some people want to turn a blind eye, and will say no Mahdi amry never killed civilians but they did.
But everyone paints each other as the bad guy.
Reality is the Europe were filled with colonialist counties, and Germany wanted a piece of the pie.
The same mentality of England was presented by Hitler to his people.
But Hitler ofcourse is super evil and colonialism of England and France of course no big deal right?
Politics is dirty and has been dirty, but some of us believe in trying to make it clean.
