    The problem is they always meddle for the wrong reasons. Nobody would be bothered if they helped in humanitarian ways.

    Mostly it’s been:

    • Cause civil war to put up a corrupt dictator that will let them pilfer the countries ressources

    • Occupy the country themselves and pilfer the ressources while ignoring the needs of the population

    • Fund Israel or the Saudis brand new corpse making machine.

    So ya, the US probably should help because they can and it’s morally the right thing to do, but they shouldn’t help like they “helped” Bagdad.

      Don’t worry, I’m sure Wagner will come to help “restore the peace” and the Chinese will “lend a hand” by lending them a Chinese police force.

      Europe needs to step up to the plate more, we can’t carry the entire team with one arm while the other arm deals with a moron who rolled a nat 20 on charisma and a nat 1 on intelligence. That, and his band of morons. Maybe we could back in the day when we had a well-educated population and politicians that didn’t get into slapfights over whether or not they look manly by causing the government to shut down. But not now.
