What would make you think there's a lack of outrage related to the US and Iraq + Afghanistan? Did you miss the massive global marches against the Iraq invasion? It's routinely brought up in discussion threads here and everywhere, and has been for 15 years now. If you want to criticize the US on human rights, the #1 go to point in every discussion is either the Iraq/Afghanistan wars (or incarceration policies in the US). It's immediately brought up, without exception. There has never been a lack of outrage about the US involvement in those countries.

Yet the sovereignty of those countries is still in US control, thee were 10,000 civilian casualties last year just in Afghanistan, and an ever increasing amount of countries face the same fate.
We should address our own atrocities if we want to shame the Chinese for theirs.

Where is the outrage right now? where is the outrage over the slaughter of children in Yemen by the Saudis using US weapons? I don't see any here or in the US mainstream media. if you are an american, your tax dollars helped created these weapons.
