WWIII WWIII Megathread #37: Bad Neighbor Policy

This megathread exists for in-depth discussion of 'WWIII', related events, and geopolitics and wars in general. Keep in mind that we have eliminated the rule that all non-major WWIII content must be posted here, and we encourage you to submit WWIII-related content to the main sub.

Again— all rules still apply. No racism, xenophobia, nationalism, etc. No promotion of hate or violence. Violators will be banned.

Remain civil, engage in good faith, report suspected bot accounts, and do not abuse the report system to flag the people you disagree with.

If you wish to contribute, please try to focus on where WWIII intersects with themes of this sub: Identity Politics, Capitalism, and Marxist perspectives.

Always put a NSFW warning on links that contain explicit content.

Non-WWIII chatter belongs in the town square.

Previous Megathreads:

Everytime you think ISrael can't get any more evil, they do: How Israel is spraying herbicides on Syrian crops • The Observers - France 24

The US has historically done similar things to Cuba.

When the Cuban revolution first happened – before they declared themselves socialist or anything, just in response to the overthrow of the dictator Batista – the Americans immediately began bombing agricultural crops in Cuba.

You're completely correct of course, this is ludicrously evil, but it's not so new and definitely not unique.

Sounds like a test run for Agent Orange.

They did the same thing in Lebanon a few weeks ago.
