They didn't kill 100k civilians, they killed millions. Just because they didn't personally shoot each and every one doesn't mean they didn't willfully create the conditions to starve them or deny them access to essential services.

True, lest not forget who has behind pretty much every recent conflict & escalation in the Middle East. Israeli influence in American politics is out of control:

Allies don't draw you into provocative & endless wars so you can fight on their behalf. They don't use agents to black mail & control your politicians, & to influence your corporations & media. Nor do they buy them off or influence them to act against the interests of their people.

There is only one terrorist nation in the Middle East right now the US needs to worry about, and the least they could do is stop funding their genocides with tax payer money.
