Now here is my answer to your bias question, JJ. I would NOT press any of the two buttons, but I would stand up and fight the regime together with all those who were very unhappy with it. I would risk my life for it. It is worth it, believe me, I speak from experience. I would welcome an outside help, but not in form of invasion that could keel me before I could fight the regime. By coming into the country as a liberator, you make those inside look as weak and incapable of winning their own fight. You put them down as humans.
But, you could have been a very, very good friend by helping more the resistance in the country to fight the regime. It might be longer path, but more dignified for all parties involved. USA has done that before and it worked beautifully. Why did we divert from the honorable path now? That is my question, JJ. The prolonged sanctions only weakened the resistance..... But, history will judge us all eventually.
JJ:
A bias is caused by a distortion of the truth.
Why do you think I am biased and where did I distort?
From your position, it sounds like you would have been against the liberation of the Jews from Hitler. Instead would you have just let Hitler finish them all off in the hope they would just rebel and overthrow him?
Sad philosophy.
