    It’s a stretch to say that going to war in the middle east indicated “care” about/for Arab people.

    Also, I haven’t checked but I’d bet good money that we’ve gone back on more promises than we’ve actually honored WRT interpreters.

    Meaning, to be clear:

    We’ve promised a lot of interpreters U.S. visas / citizenship if they helped us in Iraq and Afghanistan, and have probably blocked more from entry to the U.S. than we have allowed.

    That is utterly fucked up, and I don’t see why anyone would trust such promises from the U.S. in the future.
