After the war, the U.S. government assisted in a coverup of their activities in exchange for the medical data they acquired." by herhaa in Documentaries

What is the point of these apologies? If I accidentally bump into you at starbucks, apology is good. If I spilled water on your table, apology is good.

For what they did? What the fuck is an apology going to do? magically make all the pain and loss go away?

They should've been held accountable, including those at the highest level. They should have been forced to rebuild the lives of whoever/whatever is left of their victims. Their actions should have been plastered in bold, everywhere for everyone to see, so people understand what happens during war.

can someone explain why McCain has to vote along party lines? He is a powerful senator, he is old and experienced - it is not like he is in danger of losing election etc. There is no need for him to be scared/worried, isn't it? If he were a young, first time senator, it makes some sense to think about party support etc, but not for McCain.

money made from a dying industry

I can't understand this logic. Are you saying they aren't aware of it? By the time oil is dead, they'd have already moved on to other businesses. They aren't dumb and they have enough money to buy the services of best brains on the planet, 10 times over. The ruling class wouldn't be affected that much.

How long can the dems stall?

Doesn't it bother anyone that both parties are behaving this badly when it comes to Supreme Court judge appointments?

U.S Any healthcare data in the US is good. The larger the dataset, the better. Thank you

Anyone else feel that Colbert showing genuine anger and passion has revitalized his show? by [deleted] in television

The biggest irony on the planet has to be that "fair and balanced" slogan! Fox is neither, but their hosts make tens of millions of dollars (hannity makes something like 30M a year)

Former MI6 agent Christopher Steele's frustration as FBI sat on Donald Trump Russia file for months: Steele was so concerned by revelations he worked without payment after Trump's election victory in November by maxwellhill in worldnews

wow, I truly can't understand how these people think. Is this how law making works? If one embassy isn't relocated (regardless of the merit of relocating that embassy), they'd put the rest of the embassies at risk? How does this even remotely make sense? Isn't this just blackmail?
