    Literally fucking Somalia. Would Somalia do it? What about Momar Gaddafi? The man was a lunatic who ruled a geographically massive country for decades. I don’t know how he’d spill the beans, but he certainly wouldn’t’ve kept quiet. How many coups have happened in the dense jungles of central africa and Southeast Asia as well as the Amazon?

    Then there’s the unwilling pariah states. South Africa and Zimbabwe aren’t small countries. If the US government had been keeping all this hush hush apartheid South Africa and Rhodesia would’ve traded silence and compliance for aid and the arms to suppress the indigenous rebellion.

    Like yeah it’s absurd to imagine all these wildly different countries doing the same thing about this. Like no of course they wouldn’t. And many couldn’t.

      Imagine if North Korea had a crashed saucer. They’d be parading it out in the streets for the world to see and claiming it could destroy the US with one hit.

      There’s plenty of other countries that would do similar. Hell imagine how much money you could get for scraps? It would be all over the world and everyone would know.

        Are you really sticking up for apartheid South Africa and Rhodesia? You’re allowed to do that I guess but yikes nonetheless.

          That’s a strawman if I ever seen one.

          I didn’t know black locals killing black locals and making them do things they didn’t want to do was a good thing.

          Terrorism is terrorism. Try defend the communist killing farmers and tribesmen.
