US wars since 2001 have killed 4.5 million people

The staggering total of 4.5 million deaths includes Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syria and portions of Pakistan affected by the spillover of the war in Afghanistan. Deaths among US soldiers and contractors, including later deaths due to cancers, suicides and other consequences of the wars, are not the focus.

Obviously the profoundly delusional reasoning for all this wouldn't be a focus either. If it were, it might provide the potential of families waking up to the fact that the deaths of their loved one's was essentially an act of murder. In which these presidents should all be {In a modern-day Nuremberg Trial, all four presidents would be in the dock, charged with conducting illegal wars of aggression and responsibility for mass death and suffering.}

Off our backs, in our names---it's profoundly disgusting and sickening.

referring to the invasion & killing of civilians in small defenseless countries as wars is a sick joke, imo.
somewhat similar to referring to a fight between a heavyweight & a bantamweight as a boxing match.

You're right, the boxing analogy is more like a sanctioned beating...

It will keep happening, as long as only a small % of American families are affected by these endless wars of choice. The most brilliant thing that the ruling class did after Vietnam, thru their two bought major parties, was to get rid of the military draft, and make it instead a Poverty Draft, thru the new "Volunteer" army. So that now there is no draft to mobilize the middle class against war, and thus the endless wars raise no mass opposition like Vietnam did. Fucking evil, but brilliant... And with that, it's also no coincidence, that these days, little or no members of congress have kids or grandkids in the military anymore, unlike the days of the Vietnam War or before that...

Drone attacks should be outlawed. Far too many mistakes, those 7 kids in Kabul after withdrawing from Afghanistan; a pure revenge attack with no military/ security objective kills 7 kids. And now another "whoopsie" admitted in Syria. It's just a random murder by an out of control bully.

Agreed. They should be a violation of international law.
