I wish this was better, there was so much opportunity for criticism of the U.S.’s actions in the Middle East which quite literally caused this story to happen but any criticism seems, in my opinion, neutralized by the acknowledgements where it thanks the soldiers who “protect” the United States by going to fight in the Middle East. Who were they protecting?
