Douglas Murray talks about this pathology by the liberals quite eloquently. As he says we dont go to these people to further our knowledge about medicine, science, other cultures or just about anything at all for that matter. Theres a solid reason for that.

This is very well pointed out. I might add the UN here also. I worked with them at various times during my military career and they are without a doubt one of the most useless, wasteful and conniving organisations I've ever seen. When I was with them in South Sudan they had been deployed there for over 10 years, the conflict had rumbled on during that time and nothing had been achieved other than closetting away the refugees in camps. The UN peacekeepers are made up in the main of soldiers from poor countries, when I was there it was Mongolian, Ugandan, and Bangladesh I believe. The UN pays the countries that provide the troops 120 dollars per day per man, along with all costs. So can anyone see the problem here? Let me explain, there is virtually no incentive to solving the problem! The whole racket is a self licking lolly! As long as they provide the troops the costs are paid and a regular income is "earned" for the country providing them. This is one of the reasons that UN hates having the likes of the UK military involved, we just tended to get things done, that single British engineering detachment with an infantry amd medical squadron achieved more in 6 months than the entire of the UN force achieved in 10 years.

I firmly blame hollywood for this noble savage misperception, and much else. Its my solid belief that Hollywood has much to answer for in regard to how we view our history and how others view us.

@richardtemple8443 I'd put my money on Murray in a debate against you friend any day. Maybe you could write to him and judge for yourself.

@richardtemple8443 OK Mr Mater put forward a half decent rebuttal of what Murray says as I've quoted above. Genuinely interested in hearing from someone that's self admittedly not "thick as mince".

@peterlangbridge4628 he's clearly speaking not from an individual point of view but of course you know that already.

@richardtemple8443 well thats why I asked you to just focus on the original tiny bit of what he said as quoted in the first post, the one which you kindly replied to so eloquently. I got the impression you wanted to say more to it, as befits your privileged expensive education which you grandly eluded to. I am genuinely interested to hear what you might have to say in "destroying" the logic of Murray the right winger on this particular point, apparently you destroy these arguments "any day of the week" so you surely have time here 👍

@peterlangbridge4628 Oh that's a shame then, I thought you might be halfway serious, with something interesting and relevant to say in rebuttal, something befitting your apparent expensive education, sadly not then? Just like the rest then, nothing to add aside from insults and snark.
