Dear Ms. Applebaum:
I suggest that the US really has no moral credibility to judge the Russians or Chinese. We are number one in the world in assassinations or extra-judicial killing - more commonly called murder - of citizens in other countries. We have caused the deaths of tens if not hundreds of thousands of children in Iraq with our earlier 'sanctions'. We will cause significant harm if not death to thousands of Iranians with our sanctions against them. Oh right - that's just 'collateral damage'.
As the Board of Investigative Journalism has recently documented, we are purposefully killing rescuers and mourners in Afghanistan - hardly 'collateral damage'. We are the cause for Afghans to be in constant fear of their lives with our drones and night raids.
And regarding the supply of weaponry to Syria, we are the number one supplier of weaponry globally including to authoritarian governments.
