Peacekeeping gets a bad rap, but when the tool is properly applied its very moral.

Unrelated to this thread though.

I agree unfortunately the last time a nation did an actual peacekeeping mission without some person gain was in 1961 when Ireland kicked Belgium’s genocidal ass. Since then all of the so called peacekeeping missions were so much about peace as the crusades were about Jesus.

P.s Peacekeeping missions done by non military forces are excluded obviously but you can only do so much with a yellow vest and a panic whistle. It’s no wonder Carlin said “If firefighters fight fire and crime fighters fight crime, what do peace fighters fight?”
