>BTW, slavery STILL exists in many of those parts of the world. We know it still exists and one example is at the fault of the USA there is now open slave trade in Libya [1]. We also still have legal slavery in our prison system as a law. 500,000 dead in Iraq due to illegal wars, laughed at and claimed as 'good' [2]. Cambodia, Laos, Iraq, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Korea, Libya, the list doesn't end! The world would likely be a much better place if the USA didn't have it's fingers in everything, everywhere, nearly every country, killing people in mass , all around the world for decades [3][4]. The first chapter, the preface even, of Noam Chomsky's 'Manufacturing Consent' goes into extraordinary detail about USA's history of genocide and atrocities all around the world, and it's all totally sourced in full. I suggest everyone read it. I've seen estimates between 6 million and 20 million killed by USA in wars since WW1, and that's only by war and conflict, most absolutely provoked by the USA.

Who said they "cared"? I said intercepted. They basically intercept everything, and specifically will capture everything they monitor of terrorists. > In the years since 9/11, police raids of terrorist cells in the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain have yielded countless images of hard-core child pornography.

I have dishes to wash which is much more productive than these threads have become.
Yes, having a president who did not start a single war for the first time since Reagan is "favorable" to a voter such as myself. And last time I voted specifically against this: [LINK] . There are now _slave markets_ in Libya: this video
