I pray when the fires in Iraq and Syria die off and everything settles down we can all do our part to make sure we never war there again.
meloncanister
makes sense now, free ISIS to bring stability back to these countries. Without an enemy there is no reason for total control.

This is such a shame, the people are in revolt and dictators are once again vying for their place at the top.

Between Iraq, Hong Kong, and Chile I'm just slowly losing faith that there's any chance of our race redeeming themselves.
mindstorm8191
What I think? There's always been conflict & protesting. Now w/ more ppl on the web, we can see it, its not silenced or rushed over by media
Fidess
Sauce?
MokiYoki
honestly world wide a lot of governments are running the people like cattle, and the way things are going the world could tip into worldwar.
MokiYoki
The majority of people dont want to fight, its a small minority stirring up trouble. But they often have insane cash and/or military.
MokiYoki
people need to band together and all agree that we will refuse to fight each other. Including you who work as police or military.

Iraqi people I hope you get your peace and change.

Will they ever be able to live in peace? All that suffering.
RyalC89
It's amazing how all these places are tired of the violence/acts committed by their countries are just going full RATM and demanding peace!

Anyone who’s studied the various factions of Iraq knows, there may not be an easy way to satisfy everyone without splitting up or tyranny.

Do you have a link to any articles describing what is happening?

Actually there's a wiki to start, educating myself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018%E2%80%9319_Iraqi_protests
FourLegsGood
Believe it or not this is an improvement over previous decades. At least they feel they can protest even if it's dangerous.
freedomForAlll
Guess You never heard of the 1991 Iraqi revolution, it’s was big and people almost took saddam and his government down.
freedomForAlll
But the US didn’t want saddam to go down yet they lifted the air space ban and let him fly his bombers and helicopters to cleanse the protes
armagetz
If by US you mean Saudi Arabia....then yes
grzyboslaw11
As someone from ex totalitarian regime I agree. This is a MASSIVE change. They believe that their lives won't be wasted
illforgetthislater
It’s refreshing seeing several different countries standing against their shitty governments. Americans could learn a lesson from all this.
Mikey667
Seems like the whole world took a bite of the shit sandwich lately. Time to re-boot.
whitewater0034
Seems like it, however statistics show this is the safest time we have had for a long time. Less people die now despite all the fighting.
bonly89
Last reboot was totally not worth it. A soft reset would be nice.
abion47
Do you want meteors? Because this is how you get meteors.
customcartoons
Or, in a way, the whole world is spitting out the shit sandwich their masters give them, and is refusing to take another bite.
Mikey667
Good point. Either way, we are waking up to the lies and treachery of religion and corrupt politicians.
customcartoons
I LOVE that they are calling their religious leaders to task. Not the "fanatical" Iraq the media would have me believe they are. :)
Mikey667
I hope the middle east is finally starting to wake up.
dankenmutt
Not like the cia... caused all the instability in the first place...
Time2Wasted
The theocracy had Americans to blame for all their problems before. Now the shroud is lifted and everyone sees who's shitting on them.
ImSecretlyVeryEvil
Re-boot you say? Alright, priming nuclear warheads...
alwaysmoorelaw
Always happens before major conflict. WW3 coming soon to a city near you!
Leeloothedog
why do you think public opinion is going ham against china in the past few years? somehow ppl dont notice propaganda in social media.
Leeloothedog
also just since somone will accuse me im sure... i dont give a fuck about china.
Camelspotting
You mean the last 6 weeks? There was a distinct lack of anything against them before.
Leeloothedog
its intensified with HK for sure. but there anti china sentiment has been growing for years.
boevis
I've hated that country for years
thrownawayasianguy
I truly feel this, but i think it's going to be very cyber heavy. Seems the emails leak from the elections were just a test run tbh
alwaysmoorelaw
It will be against China. It very well could be the end of western culture as we know it. They're will be invaders on our soil.
thrownawayasianguy
Honestly if it's against Russia and China, I don't see a scenario in which we can win. Why is life so scary now?
Camelspotting
Russia is basically a 3rd world country, not too worth worrying about.

What can we do to help these people? This situation is so f***ed up, it's leaving me speechless
IFoundOutThatYouCanHave63CharactersOntheUsernameHowCoolIsThat
jfc, you people are hopeless. "help everyone" by screwing everyone.
RXJ235231
If you want a truthful answer: let the region stabilize/destabilize itself out, or conquer the nation & establish/enforce order.
glear
Main2Main
We dont the US fucked up the middle east. We need to step out of it and let it go its natural course it'll eventually work itself out.
IraqiWalker
It's natural course will probably involve revenge. This is what happened with Afghanistan and Iran.
Main2Main
Yeah because we just had to interfere.
Koocher
Oust the bankers.
RXJ235231
We can kill their oppressive dictator and leave a power vacuum. Or, we can arm and train religious radicals to fight Communism.
RXJ235231
You can't go wrong with either one.
MokiYoki
everyone working for governments needs to agree to stop hurting the people. they are part of the majority too. if you are being made to fire
MokiYoki
miss on purpose. Do everything you can to protect the majority. The people treating us like cattle can only do so if you act like cattle.

TardigradeTardiGREAT
Does that plan have a step 2?
fireclanninja1337
Yeah we've seen the shit out of this.
Time2Wasted
Don't get involved militarily. How many wars do we have to fight for them before we realize it just prolongs the issues at the base.
MokiYoki
All of us connected people need to agree to not fight each other. even if drafted into the military. they cant make us kill each other.
vowofsilence
“How many wars do we have to fight for them?” US invaded a fairly stable Iraq on false premise which kept changing with time. 1/2
vowofsilence
2/2 no wars were fought “on behalf” of anyone. They were instigated by the US and left the nation a disaster, much like Syria
vowofsilence
This violence is just a consequential result of the US invasion
Time2Wasted
Premise became "for them" to sell the occupation to Congress. Same when we went back to fight ISIL. Also US didn't instigate Syria civil war
ProxPIox
Also Persian Gulf War, Iraqis couldn't get rid of Saddam so UN had to fight a war to remove Saddam from Kuwait.
vowofsilence
US placed Sadam in power in the first place! During the reign of Bush Sr.
