Explain.

So you know when the US bombs countries for "humanitarian reasons"? Like that. Like how citizens of the US think we should go to war to stomp out those backwards Muslims who will never be able to govern themselves because they all want theocracy so they need a bloody revolution and we should help? Like that. Or how about when a country has been colonized, underdeveloped, exploited, and devastated and then we give "aid" that results in more wealth being extracted and when they finally decide to stop that we call them terrorists and extremists and then stoke a civil war, arm and train the side most amenable to our interests and then bomb the country to bring about the change we seek? Like that.

So you're rationalizing why it's just to bomb civilians by complaining about how injust it us when civilians are bombed? You're an incoherent mess.
