I'm not defending past Chinese actions - and I guess you know that too? d

But you're not attacking them either. Certainly not as voiciferously as you do with the US.

We don't exist in a vacuum DD. You can't ignore or excuse the actions of pariah nations, and then condemn the less than moral reactions that the US is forced to resort to in order to counter them.

A truly "moral" nation, residing in a sea of immorality and despotism, simply has no recourse but to resort to immoral means to defend itself. It is a paradox and seems hypocritical, but because "evil" has no limits to its cruelty, "good" is left at a disadvantage.

We've seen it throughout history where good people are compelled to do bad things because violence and evil has been thrust on them by criminals and conquerors.

That's why I get disgusted with you and rrman constantly denigrating the US, but flippishly ignoring the aggression of other nations.
