the CIA doesn't actively support rojava against other communists
the CIA supported pol pot because he was actively against the vietcong
It was due to Sino-Soviet split, nothing more.
the cambodian-vietnamese war was not leftist infighting
They supported him after he have fallen down to the Vietnamese revisionists.
Of course it was. Just like Ethiopia-Somalia, or China invading Vietnam for removing the Khmer Rouge.
Im surprised to how diplomatic the US is to communist countries
During ww2 I wouldnt support the commies or the nazis if I ran the US
I'd probably fight japan though but only Japan
What is surprising is how US haven't liquidated North Korea and Cuba, the last remnants of the Comintern, but actively goes against the non-aligneds. Yugoslavia, Iraq, Syria, Libya.
As for the Kim, trump summit I'd never try for such a peaceful approach
its simple, they dont want their people to die
they want minimal casualties on their part
Kind of a dumb chance imo
I wouldnt take such risks
Apparently north korea is actually taking down test sites
Its very suspicious to me though
Since you're Irish, how do you feel about IRA being basically Nazbols?
the terrorists or the originals?
The originals, they collaborated with the Nazis and then with the Soviets. Kinda like Jewish Lehi.
Oh.
I always found it weird how they basically agreed on making Ireland a liberal-democracy, apparently they lost popular support or something.
No a lot were socialists believe it or not
like very long ago and I think even the originals were too
but most importantly the originals wanted Ireland and the terrorists wanted the north
they ended up splitting but each had thousands in their military
and I think the communist IRA had about 10-20 thousand members and some were hired by the ussr and sent to north korea
Woah.
long story short they tricked north koreans into thinking they had a much bigger army and took on extensive training
and they struggled a lot with the training because of their fitness levels, and they hated their food
but they were still treated pretty highly by citizen north koreans
after that the communist IRA who went to north korea didnt like for communism to be the future for Ireland anymore
because of how north korea turned out because of it
this was in the middle of the cold war too. But Irish people generally just try their best to do whats best for their people, they only then realized how bad communism was.
the socialist revolutionaries were very very fucking hardcore before that though man
taking hunger strikes and making them starve to death for their country
During prison too
Socialist or not I have to respect them for their dedication for trying to help Ireland's people.
thats why I love Ireland so much, my people never stop fighting against their oppression.
Lel most of our independence fighters were socialists too, tho they were anti-communists.
