Someone whose job it is to faciliate remembering a genocide calls a group of people "fundamentally evil". Must have not ever walked into the museum.

Americans should be careful with these open endorsements for collective punishment. You reap what you sow and history has a funny way of surprising people.

Americans love collective punishment. We've been trained to be bloodthirsty monsters and support our military uncritically when they commit war crimes in our name.

Also, I know for a fact that we used depleted uranium in Iraq and Afganistan, poisoning the locals for generations to come.
