Nicholas Goldberg: America needs to try harder to match its foreign policy to its morals (via latimesopinion)
I once went to the village of Koreme in Iraqi Kurdistan and walked along a dirt road past a little brick school and a makeshift mosque to a dusty field of almond trees and high grass where all the males of the village — age 13 to 43 — had been taken in 1988 and told to squat, side by side. Iraqi soldiers then opened fire, and 27 Kurdish men and boys were killed.
I heard it again from refugees during the Sudanese civil war. “Why does the world allow such atrocities?”,” a new documentary by Dror Moreh, whose 2012 “The Gatekeepers” received an Oscar nomination.
To Moreh’s credit, the film isn’t simply about chastising the U.S. for its failures; it seeks to understand how the decisions get made. We don’t always recognize the dangers in time. Or we see no exit strategy. Or we’re not willing to sacrifice American lives.
