    Rule by fear is the only means of ensuring peace and stability in middle eastern countries; and to prove it, look what happens every time dictators are overthrown - peace and stability disappear and chaos prevails in their absence. Unfortunately there is a need in some regions of this planet for dictators. Indeed, I often think some western countries need them on 'short-term contracts'?

    Why TF would Assad use effing 'barrel bombs' when he has high explosive materiel ffs? Barrel bombs - an improvised weapon?? - would surely only be used by those who don't have access to explosives, for example er, jihadists??? And the remainder of your post is equally as lacking in insight as that part of it.

    Yes, millions did die, including some in my own family fighting Japan.
    I suggest you don't read anything with 'hoax' or 'plot' in its click-bait title.
    Or, 'scandal', 'revelation', 'exposed' or 'shocking.'
    Any pay attention to WHO is writing this stuff, and WHY.

    I read a lot of material about the Vietnam war. Afterwards studies showed
    that the one major publication which got the most things right about that
    conflict and its aftermath was the Readers Digest.

    Partisan lunacy on both sides. Tribalism has made people lose their minds.

    A few drugs would affect toddlers quite easily. Now that wasn't so hard now was it?

    The greatest casualties we ever had was during our civil war. It was around 620 thousand.

    Those 'casualty' figures were not those killed by enemy action. They include men who were killed by disease, starvation and include those who lost limbs etc. These were in the hundreds of thousands.

    Civil War (1861-1865)

    Total U.S. Servicemembers (Union) 2,213,363
    Battle Deaths (Union) 140,414
    Other Deaths (In Theater) (Union) 224,097
    Non-mortal Woundings (Union) 281,881
    Total Servicemembers (Conf.) 2 1,050,000
    Battle Deaths (Confederate) 3 74,524
    Other Deaths (In Theater) (Confederate) 3,
    4 59,297 Non-mortal Woundings (Confederate) Unknown

    Figures in bold indicate based on incomplete returns

    US Department of Veteran Affairs.

    Casualty figures typically include, KIA, wounded, disease, exposure, or any other cause for being taken out of action.

    Agreed. But the difference is that disease, starvation has greatly reduced due to medicines.
