Who to believe?
I'm sure things used to be simpler.
The bad guys had skulls on their uniforms or filmed themselves being awful. The good guys would happily take in child refugees and would then gather all the good guys and biff the baddies into submission before restoring their war-ravaged countries to better places.
Now we have a policy of not taking child refugees from countries that WE have bombed – a policy of our Primeminister who is also authorising the bombing attacks. We have a US president that is morally corrupt and will only engage with the world through threats. I can’t fathom Macron’s motivations.
Our foreign policy appears to be to simply lob a few cruise missiles every now and again into these war torn countries as a symbol of us taking the moral high ground.
Look at the state of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria. We have blood on our hands.
I genuinely don’t trust any of the factions, not even the UK government - first time I have ever felt this.
