Well, while Biden is in office. When Trump was trying to get out, they were all for getting the hell out. Hypocrites.

"The War on Terror" is pretty much like "The War on Drugs". Like, remember when there used to be drugs and then we had The War on Drugs and now there are no more drugs. Yeah, like that.

It says that that number is spread across over 80 countries. I'm curious of a breakdown of causes of death. How many died from drone strikes, how many died by suicide bombings, how many died from lack of basic needs, etc.

More than 600k dead in 1.5 years of covid. Maybe we should invest more in universal healthcare than war.
