Trump's 'Board of Peace' - Acknowledging US Carnage, Masking the Systemic Violence
📰 THE STORY: Al Jazeera reports on former US President Donald Trump, during a signing event for his 'Board of Peace,' listing countries the US has bombed. The tone of the video suggests an ironic or almost accidental admission of US military intervention. 🔍 WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU: Historical Context: The list of countries Trump mentioned, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, and

From the 1953 CIA coup in Iran to the 1973 coup in Chile, US operations have installed dictators, destabilized regions, and directly caused millions of deaths, often under the guise of 'spreading democracy' or fighting 'terrorism.' In Libya, for example, the 2011 NATO 'intervention' (pushed by figures like Hillary Clinton)
plunged Africa's most prosperous nation into chaos, leading to widespread human rights abuses and the return of slave markets. Double Standard: When a US president (even a former one) acknowledges the trail of destruction, it's often framed as peculiar or a 'Trumpism.' Yet, when nations like Russia or China are accused of military overreach or human rights violations, Western media universally
condemns it as an unequivocal attack on global order.
