🗣️ Former head of US military General Mark Milley: Don't blame Israel, we slaughtered thousands too

Milley said: "Before we all get angry about what Israel is doing, we should remember that we, the US, killed innocents in Mosul and Raqqa, that we killed 12 thousand French citizens in Normandy...

...We destroyed 69 Japanese cities, not including Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We slaughtered people in huge numbers, innocent people who had nothing to do with their governments, men, women and children - war is a terrible thing."

📑 The remarks made by US officials about the tolerance for the intentional murder of civilians to achieve goals has also been echoed by Israeli officials as an excuse

In an interview with Dr Phil in Jerusalem, the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu says that what Israel is doing is still better than what the U.S.A did in its own wars.

That Israel has killed so far 16,000 civilians in Gaza, but this is okay because the death ratio to combatants is still better than the American in Mousal.
