thus, when the BBC reports on death tolls in some war
somewhere ... they always neglect to remind us about how
British troop massacred thousands in their colony in
India when Gandhi led the people to independence ... BBC
is one of my favorite whataboutism finger pointing
agents of disinformation ... they pretend they never
hand an empire that was went about subjugating entire
populations for gain ... for megabucks in the nations
lottery during the "colonial period" ... Belgium in the
Congo is the subject of Heart of Darkness by some
obscure writer ... a book that became the film
Apocalypse Now ... our forays into southeast Asia for
the offshore oil

Henry Kissinger had many fingers pointing at him when
the Khmer Rouge went on a killing spree in Cambodia ...
that's a very juicy bit of whataboutism ... of course
he was partly responsible ... he was part of the
planning for our incursion into the parrot's beak and
the subsequent loss of life there ... on both sides ...
carnage is what we do best ... hence our entry into
Iraq and into Afghanistan ... oh we love our pipelines
don't we ... and I notice we are still in Iraq ... in
fact some of our personnel are being injured by attacks
since the massacre of October seven this year past ...
fun and games in the middle east ... and what did our
"forefathers" say about "foreign entanglements" hmm?
yes, the bite us on the ass all the time ... wake up
pilgrims and smell the blood on our hands before you go
pointing your fingers at anyone ... one finger points
out and three fingers point at the one who points
