Then, and only then, do we have the right to denounce the artocities of others and exercise the opportunity to show the world what real global leadership for human rights, rule of law, democracy and freedom really means.
So, using your logic, the United States would never have been involved in WWII, EVEN AFTER BOTH JAPAN AND GERMANY HAD DECLARED WAR UPON US, because we still had segregation, sexism, and still held possessions gained from imperialist policies, right??
Don't complain about anyone else, and ignore their attacks against you, until you have achieved 100% perfection in your own democracy.. right?
Don't intervene when other countries are committing aggressions, or undermining democratic governments until we have our own house in order.. right?
If we see a genocide taking place, don't intervene until we have our house in order.. right?
Just sit on our @sses and watch the world go by until we're perfect and you no longer have any reason to criticize or complain.. right??
Am I understanding you correctly?
