Liberal Democrats? Liberal Imperialists

Many like to think that the Liberal Democrats are anti-war and pro-international law, because they opposed the Iraq War. Total nonsense.

In 2013, Jo Swinson and the rest of them, voted to allow the UK to intervene in Syria without getting UN approval. 

They could not give a damn about international law. They support an illegal ‘humanitarian’ interventionism, that is really just a smokescreen for securing access to resources and general war profiteering.

And now with the likes of Blairite Chuka Umunna, and several Tories, in their party, they are even more of a danger.

And let's not forget that the chemical attack in Syria that the Lib Dems wanted to respond to, most likely did not happen as we were told. And let's not forget that the west has been waging a multi-$billion proxy war against Syria, via support for jihadist groups

By their support for this bill, the Lib Dems demonstrated that they were/are in support of that proxy war, which has killed half a million people and displaced many more.

They clearly demonstrated that they will willingly fall for war propaganda that advances the interests of western elites and corporations; the US EmpireMeanwhile, they'll mostly ignore the crimes of that Empire

They clearly demonstrated that they have no interest in creating a just, peaceful global system based on cooperation, diplomacy, and international law.

(Jo Swinson is also an open admirer of blood-drenched neocon, Hillary Clinton).
