Imagine Learning About American Presidents the Way You Learned About Stalin

Under Obama, the U.S. massively expanded drone warfare. CFR counted 542 drone strikes authorized during his presidency, estimating roughly 3,797 people killed, including 324 civilians. Even the Obama administration acknowledged using military force across Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Libya and Yemen, while drone operations also took place in Pakistan.

The administration defended these policies as lawful counterterrorism, while critics disputed its civilian-casualty accounting.

None of that makes every accusation against Stalin true. It exposes the difference in framing. Soviet history is often reduced to repression, executions and death tolls; American violence gets buried beneath words like intervention, national security, targeted strike, and collateral damage.

Imagine learning about the American empire from someone who hated it as much as your history textbook hated the USSR.

China has pledged to “firmly support” Cuba days after President Trump told the United Nations that the island “will fall”.

Marking 66 years of diplomatic relations on Monday, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesman, Guo Jiakun, said China would back Cuba in “exploring the socialist development path suited to its national conditions” and in opposing outside interference.

Mr Trump had called Cuba an “absolutely failed state” and “a haven for foreign adversaries” in his General Assembly speech on 22 September, prompting the Cuban delegation to leave the hall.

Cuba’s president, Miguel Díaz-Canel, replied that “Cuba is not a threat, the blockade is”, referring to the American trade embargo in place since 1962. The United States says its measures are a response to political repression on the island.
