      It happens when Swedish soldiers go to foreign countries - Bosnia, Kosovo, or Afghanistan, for example.

      I’m gay asf, my point is, FUCK WAR. Wars are for the elite pedophile club to send us working class people to die in for them to make more $$$.

        Yes, fuck war in general. But also, fuck rolling over when fascists show up on your border.

            You’re right, but the sentiment stands: there cannot be any tolerance against intolerance, because that would be the end of all tolerance

        Bosnia, Kosovo, or Afghanistan

        Two of these three were UN sanctioned security missions designed to protect the local population from some murderous bastard. Kosovo still sings praises to “The Nordic Battalion”, so I have no idea why you listed these in this context.

        Afghanistan - fits a bit more, but they sent a relatively small contingent and did a bunch of humanitarian aid.

        my point is, FUCK WAR

        Agreed. But sometimes it’s just inevitable.

        That’s such a fucking stretch… It’s like saying whoever was the provider of satellite images has “participated in the US bombing” of X. Or, “the store owner participated in the killing of XYZ” because he sold someone the knife…

          If you provide military intel on targets to a military who then strike them using said intel you are absolutely an accomplice.

          “the store owner participated in the killing of XYZ” because he sold someone the knife…

          More akin to the store owner killed XYZ by pointing them out to the crazed gunman looking for them.

            If you provide intel on how to drive a car to a person who then drunkenly plows into a group of people, killing them, you are absolutely an accomplice.

              No but if you provide them the alcohol knowing they plan to drive you are. You are a debate pervert. Tying yourself in knots to justify unjustifiable evil because you benefit from it.

                Sweden didn’t provide ammunition, equipment, or men. It provided knowledge. Your example is bad.

                People like you are always hilarious. It’s like “we will not take part in the alliance because there is a potential that maybe, who knows, some of the knowledge we shared might be used incorrectly”.

                Grow up. The world is not black and white, it’s not simple, and people are not all-knowing.

                  NATO action and support has only ever been used for bad

                  Grow up. The world is not black and white, it’s not simple, and people are not all-knowing.

                  The world may not be black or white but that does not mean all good and bad is equivalent. The US is particularly egregious support for them since 1949 should be shameful and disencouraged where possible. The world would be net better if the US empire crumbled.

                    As we already established, you have no clue what NATO is or what it does

                    The world would be net better if the US empire crumbled.

                    No, because then the russian and Chinese empires would rear their heads. The world would be better off if ALL empires crumbled.
