What is the weird childish liberal need to reduce everything to good guys and bad guys and what's "right and wrong" (as if we, the genocidal collective west could recognize either at this point) without ever looking into the facts, the history of a place or what the people living there have decided already. This is a conversation about geopolitics, about the logical and predictable working of state machinery. "Justified" is not a word that means anything in this field. You might as well hold up everything to weepily condemn the authoritarianism of physics. Something either is or it isn't. "Right" is a nonsense hueristic in this situation. Might makes reality.
