    North Americans, don’t be shocked when the shit starts hitting your neighborhood, schools, homes, daycares, and hospitals.

    Whether North Korea, or Venezuela, or Russia, etc, or a newly radicalized individual.

    We have let the world know there are no rules and we are now fair game for any nation that feels like it.

    And we have no right to complain when they do.

        The only thing that stops a bad war trauma is a good civil trauma.

      9/11 happened because of US involvement with Israel. Bin Laden clearly listed his grievances with the US, which the media purposely ignored. I’ve been expecting another terrorist attack because we never learn. America has to do everything the hard way regarding foreign policy. Huge sigh.

        “They hate us for our freedoms” was such a ridiculously stupid thing for Bush to say, but people lapped it up and just assumed it was truth. Not the USA’s most impressive moment.

      We have let the world know there are no rules

      Quite the opposite. The US is demonstrating that it is above any international law and will do what it wants regardless of any standing agreements. It’s demonstrating that the only rules that matter are the ones it makes. Israel is our dog on our leash and we’re letting it bite someone. But if anyone hurts our dog, we’ll go full John Wick on their country. That’s why Israel bombs schools and hospitals without warning and Iran gives a few days notice before they attack.

      It’s already happening. People are shooting up Jewish schools and places of worship in response.

        Theres far far far more anti muslim violence than anti jewish. ADL has been counting people saying mean things online as a spike in anti semitic violence. Words are not violence. Holding a sign objecting to Israeli actions are not violence. And objecting to Israel is not anti semitic.
