US Scolds Rwanda: Some Peace Deals Matter More
So, the US suddenly remembers 'peace deals' when Rwandan-backed M23 rebels seize Congo's mineral-rich areas, causing 400+ civilian deaths. The US ambassador expresses concern, warning of consequences. One might wonder where this selective outrage was for, say, Yemen, or the 30,000+ civilians in Gaza, where the US didn't just 'warn' but actively supplied the weapons that caused the carnage. It
appears war crimes are only deemed problematic when they threaten supply chains the US hasn't already cornered. This isn't about peace; it's about control. The hypocrisy is so blinding, it’s a wonder DC isn't constantly tripping over its own feet. Perhaps Secretary Blinken could issue a stern warning to Boeing about those arms deliveries to Israel next, or does 'peace deal' only apply to nations
without robust lobbying efforts in Washington?
