So, through no fault of the Nauruans, the society was destroyed by exploitation and then abandonment. A common story, sadly.

Going from a thriving economy to a prison island for migrants is also a cruel irony of recent history.

So few people see this. Like, Cuba being called a failed state. Well when a bully sanctions and blockades the daylights out of you for DECADES, I'd say that's hardly CUBA's fault!!! This is true across the globe. Herald the bully and spit on the oppressed. And, where Gaza is concerned, every damn country on Earth is guilty FOR NOT STOPPING IT.
