Or if you wanna bypass the New York Times entirely without stealing their content...

BBC posted about it, too. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg4g66r3z40o

Note: You kinda buried the lede there. He didn't just cite the Iran war. He straight up said Israel fooled/bribed Trump into it.

    In effective altruism, you don't resign-in-"protest", getting out-of-the-way of the Bad Guys .. you instead remain in-place, holding-the-line as well as you can.

    I believe it was philosopher Peter Singer who pointed this out.

    Getting out from evil's way, in "protest", is enabling evil's more-totalitarian dominion.

    Which is the wrong way of "helping" our world.
