The double standard on this.
Imagine the screams of bloody murder if America were held accountable for its war crimes because "democracy"?
Do you have any idea how many people Kissinger killed? Remember 9/11. No, not the NYC one but the one America did to Chile? Is the world allowed to carpet bomb NYC?
Ditto imagine if every time the IDF killed the innocent, if that justified vengeance against Israeli citizens because democracy? Evil.
Madness.

Long history of destroying other countries political systems & allowing RW dictatorships

I might misremember:
Frantz Fanon argued that Empire always comes back home to roost.
What is done abroad will be done at home.
@Benaresh @DrALJONES Aah, I know that term via MalcomX but have never heard of Fanon, will have to read more, he seems to have been hugely influential in such a short space of time.
