Im not american, FYI.

But where was all this outrage for

  • korean war
  • vietnam war
  • iraq war
  • afganistan war

etc etc. Arguably active genocides

There was plenty of outrage for the first two.

Lots of major protesting and riots during Vietnam. Look up the Kent State Massacre and the events leading up to it.

I wonder if I'm misunderstanding what you're insinuating with the Korean War. Are you saying the US began a conflict there?

It was either Eisenhower or FDR IIRC who first greenlit a CIA assassination and that opened the floodgates.
