How convenient that every time a moral issue comes up that we're on the right side of, it's not our problem.
I think the last time this happened was World War 2.
and even then internment camps happened
No, don't worry, MLs advocated us staying out of the 'Capitalist Imperialist War' there too, until their favorite Nazi-allied country got betrayed.
Unsurprising that you find preventing the genocide of Ukrainians to be the 'wrong side' of this war.
It's only a moral issue because it's being billed as one. For the prime actually making the decisions it's strictly strategic, you're fooling yourself if you think it's more than that. You think all of a sudden their making altruistic choices?
It's greed. It's all greed. Always has been. This greed is just convenient.
