Since the second world war, there have been about 280 armed conflicts on this planet. Plus minus. About 260 of those have been started by the US. Plus minus. Since Vietnam they had more Vietnam's than the average Joe is actually aware off!
Gaddafi gave once a seriously hilarious speech at the UN I think where he told the other Arabs how fucked up they actually are. In his words, we are the same people, and yet distrust and despise each other and have better relations with the US or France than with each other. One of us, Saddam, just got killed, for what? There was no Iraqi flying a plane on 9/11, there were no WMD anywhere close by to him, and yet we all stood by and did nothing and actually cheered on when he was hanged. Who knows which one of us will be next?!
He's like Nostradamus!
