the www.wsws.org doesn't lie to the working class as they would be shooting themselves in the foot as we depend on them to complete world socialist revolution (which is our goal) as opposed to getting a "democratic socialist" elected to office in a bourgeois institution. It was in the NYT, I'm not lying but I'm not in the mood to buy the paper or surf through the internet reading a sub par publication as sometimes I don't feel the best and I'm not up for punishing myself right now.

@dan325 I'm sick of all this shit. Evidence right here, had to actually create a nyt account with Facebook to get it. What is wrong with you people that you couldn't find it yourselves. [nytimes.com]

@dan325 Bernie actually said he'd consider a preemtive strike on suspicion of coming missile tests (nuclear or otherwise). He supports war on the pretext of "humanitarian" intervention which is what the previous interventions in Bosnia, Libyia and Syria were called by US state actors that killed and displaced millions. Also Bernie said he would use targeted assassinations (Drones) and made comments on big power conflicts that Trump wasn't aggressive enough on Russia and China, a conflict with such powers could lead to nuclear catastrophe. Read this bit of the article: Among the criminal wars carried out by the United States in the name of defending “human rights” are the war in Bosnia and the bombing of Serbia in the 1990s, the 2011 air war against Libya that ended with the lynching of deposed ruler Muammar Gaddafi, and the civil war in Syria that was fomented by Washington and conducted by its Al Qaeda-linked proxy militias.

The fraudulent humanitarian pretexts for US aggression were no more legitimate than the lie of “weapons of mass destruction” used in the neo-colonial invasion of Iraq. The result of these war crimes has been the destruction of entire societies, the death of millions and dislocation of tens of millions more, along with the transformation of the Middle East into a cauldron of great power intervention and intrigue that threatens to erupt into a new world war.

Sanders fully subscribes to this doctrine of “humanitarian war” that has been particularly associated with Democratic administrations.

In response to a question from the Times on the assassination of Suleimani, the Sanders campaign calls Trump’s action illegal, but refuses to take a principled stand against targeted assassinations in general and associates itself with the attacks on Suleimani as a terrorist.

The reply states:

Clearly there is evidence that Suleimani was involved in acts of terror. He also supported attacks on US troops in Iraq. But the right question isn’t ‘was this a bad guy,’ but rather ‘does assassinating him make Americans safer?’ The answer is clearly no.

@dan325 Question: Would you consider military force to pre-empt an Iranian or North Korean nuclear or missile test?

Answer: Yes.

@dan325 He's said on many previous occasions that he supported Obama's drone program and I think if you look you'll find it in nyt as well.
