    Study a little US history and you’ll find we’ve struggled with that question pretty much since the nation’s founding.

        Before Pearl Harbor, the US was totally fine with what the Nazis were doing in Europe, even going as far as to disparage Jewish people and refuse to allow them to come from Europe to the US for asylum. Seems things never change and our leaders consistently have no problem being on the wrong side of history.

      The fact that the US has made bad choices doesn’t make not supporting genocide a complex question
