Oh sure, an entire label of people just loves genocide

This isn't even a worthwhile conversation when one has abandoned all respect for the person they're talking to from the get-go, as you have, so I'm not going to spend a lot of energy responding to you. I hate the war machine and foreign intervention. You don't know me and the straw men you've constructed don't apply to me, but of course you'll never listen or learn from anyone who tells you what I'm telling you. You have hate in your heart and have closed your eyes and covered your ears.

Obama said he'd do one thing and then set out to do entirely the opposite. You can claim I'm naiive for believing him to begin with, but it's absurd for you to tell me here and now that I love war because I voted for someone who lied to me. Did you vote for Bush in 2000? Guess what, he ran on an anti-war ticket and then threw all that out the window ASAP. The war machine doesn't give a shit who the president is.

And your 2nd paragraph is similiarly apologetic for war crimes. No.
You didn't understand it. My point isn't that being unable to do anything is a justification for allowing war. My point is that it's easy for any politician or news outlet to be pro-war in rhetoric and then only speak out against the war once it's unpopular but no one can argue it's in those politicians' hands anymore.
