    When you have to prove that US is actually not worse than a brutal regime but only just as bad you’re not doing as great as you think.

        Basically the one in which you don’t want to look like an asshole and a monster. US is not going to face any consequences here, this all about optics. US started the entire conflict and has big advantage. It didn’t have to kill all those people. It chose to do it and did in the most cowardly way. Any invader doing something like this would be condemned and US is simply proving they are as depraved as any other brutal regime. For now they are simply as bad as the Nazis or the Soviets but looks like they are trying to prove they are actually worse.
