soldiers help achieve the goals of western imperialism
western imperialism takes more lives and causes more suffering than all terrorist acts put together

soldiers are worse than terrorists.

I think I've read somewhere that the reason why Africa is so fucked up as it is, is due to western imperialism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries

ie: making natives brutalise other natives for the interests of their new white overlords (re: Belgian rubber farms)

Well what I meant was they couldn't really create a military that can shoot each other and burn defenceless villages with napalm and shit without any risk of strong retaliation

When they were all primal apes, there was some sort of fair fight involved because any retarded cunt can make a spear from a rock and a stick and they didn't exactly care about fascist rule for no real reason

the one thing you can say about imperialism that has prob done some serious damage esp with regards to africa is the creation of a bunch of arbitrary nation states that don't correspond to actual tribal/ linguistic / ethnic realities in africa

so youve got this fuckign mishmash of genetically / culturally / linguistically disparate peoples with vastly differeing loyalities living in fictional propostion nations that were drawn up by imperialists

this is why theres a civil war and a coup in africa every five seconds (diversity is our great strenngth)

Tell me how murder is awesome again
I don't think I have ever claimed murder is awesome. Please find a quote to back this claim up. While you are at it you can also tell me more about the complex situation in Africa...

I was trying to refer to your strawman argument about how non-combat troops somehow redeem the murderous actions of soldiers because they come under the same arbitrary title of "ADF". But dat dere engineer dones halps some ppl it okies to butcher savileeans

Exactly. Its going to be incredibly hard to fix these countries up because we literally raped and pillaged them. We exploit them still with slave labour etc, and now we try to tell them what they are doing is wrong. Their rule is corrupt and its very sad.

Shame on you Western Civilization.

PS I love Western civilisation.

they exploit themselves with slave labour

slavery is still rampant in africa

africans are very good at raping and pillaging themselves for example: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/nov/25/south-african-rape-survey

One in three South African men admit to rape, survey findsSouth African survey in province of Gauteng finds 37.4% of men confessing to rape, while 25.3% of women say they are victims

Ikr. We should havent exploited and raped these nations. We should have done what we did after WWII with Germany - totally rebuild the country.

We should have modernised these countries then but of course we wouldnt have $$$$.
