With the influx of people to Lemmy instances from Reddit, existing members will tend to be a bit defensive when state department lines get regurgitated (even when the same start department has walked back on some of its claims). Even moreso when many of these new users come in to wreck, hurl insults and then leave lol.
Here’s a few more summaries with linked sources if you’re interested. The most recent extremist attacks were in 2014 where dozens of innocents were murdered. While they could be found with a quick search, they barely have any views as it undermines the whole narrative.
Some of the reasons why the US intelligence agencies have so much interest in turning the region into an extremist hotbed are:
Looking on the map, the region is a critical part of the OBOR, which the “sea based powers” in the West want to destroy for their own business interests
Similar to Afghanistan (which is geographically close to both Russia and PRC), it would create an endless supply of extremists to create futher ethnic violence and destabilisation within the whole mainland
That’s crazy, ya all I know is what is broadcasted to me. The US does have a history of causing unrest in other countries for sure. I’m a new user as well but I won’t walk away from a discussion. That’s why I’m here, for a dialog with people, not just endless scrolling.
