ZDF: US declared itself "world's gendarme" inciting wars and staging coups

31 октября 2022
The United States as a planetary gendarme. The German channel ZDF propose to recollect the list of wars which the Americans waged in the 20th and 21st centuries. Usually, these were the conflicts with weaker rivals. The Bush doctrine, which Biden follows, implies the unconditional right of the United States to attack any country. Suspicion of possessing weapons of mass destruction or threatening Washington's national interests is enough. No moral or legal restrictions are imposed on Americans. One can think of Vietnamese villages poured with combustible product, or Afghan weddings bombed. "Global gendarme" is even too mild a definition of the U.S. role. It is a policeman unconstrained by any laws.
