    I’m sorry, the fuck what?

    What was the kill count and displacement numbers from just Iraq after the 2003 invasion? Hundreds of thousands of civilians killed and something like 1 million displaced the last time I heard anything about it.

    The purpose of the invasion/occupation isn’t stability. The purpose is funneling money and creating instability in the region.

      Yeah that’s what I meant by the second part. No good at its stated goals of regime stability or whatever. Great at its unstated goals of slaughtering and displacing unarmed people.

      Sorry if there was confusion.
