    And it’s not about shutting down the genocide, we have other tools for that. This is about our culpability and sending a message of what’s required to be in the western sphere. This is exactly why the Leahy Law was passed. So we didn’t have to sit here and listen to cold war logic in the 21st century.

      I knew this was pointless to get into. I knew it as I was doing it. But someone has to be the common sense counter to the rhetoric.

        Doesn’t realize the subject matter expert studied International Politics too.
