It’s not right to station USA troops in Saudi Arabia or to fund Israel to the tune of billions of dollars as they continue to S**T on the Palestinian people.
It’s not right to starve the people of Iraq with economic sanctions that kill hundreds of thousands of children.
It’s not right that the USA uses most of the world’s resources, and maintains military installations and troops in over 700 locations.
If the USA makes it “Us Against Them” they can hardly act surprised if and when those on whom they’ve declared that war take them at their word and decide they have nothing to lose by taking as many of them down as they can.
And the reason no one is willing to just say “Stop it” is because in the world of power politics to do such a thing is for PUSSIES.
Real men hit back. Even if terrorists are able to pull off more attacks against the United States or be-head more people from USA.
The USA will ultimately find and kill them. They have the weapons and the ability to kill more of them than they can kill of you.
And that’s all that seems to matter to most yanks. Killing them will not create peace.
New freedom fighters replace old ones.
If the USA wish to minimize the likelihood of terrorism being deployed against their nation, they must insist that their nation turns from the policies that have given rise to those grievances.
If, on the other hand, the USA’s main concern is to show them how BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDD they are, then maybe this wouldn’t matter much to them at all. And in that case, they would set out to show those other kids who was boss.
That kind of behavior is messed up when kids engage in it. When adults with explosives do it, it becomes deadly.
Unless the USA begins to fundamentally alter the way they as a nation operate around the world, they are in for years of violence.
