If you get the government to simply declare everyone else “terrorists” then there is no need for rule of law anymore, you can do whatever you want! Because they are by definition worse than anything we do to them. How convenient for those states with plans for committing genocide, it doesn’t count as genocide if you are mass-murdering terrorists.
This strategy of the government calling every troublesome minority ethnic group anywhere “terrorists” got kicked into high gear when the US government started using 9/11 as an excuse to commit war crimes and remove restrictions from police forces (like the right of habeas corpus), and it has been a constant slippery slope since then. Nowadays the Biden administration officially considers the “Anti Fascist” movement in the US “terrorism,” although no one in government refers to fascist mass shooters as “terrorists.” Gee, I wonder why they would do that?

Yeah we apparently did not learn a single fucking thing from 9/11 and the shit show that followed.
Expanding the war in the middle east will do nothing but accelerate our inevitable slide into another world war.
Eventually they’re going to fuck up and do something that Saudi Arabia or Iran can’t refuse to respond to and then all hell breaks loose.

Sooo… just more of what the IDF has been doing since 1948, then.
Where are all the Israeli apologists? The ones who argue that Israel isn’t as bad as the Nazis were?

It’s just colonialist warfare with a “terrorism” narrative laid on top to make it sound more politically correct.
Yeah 100 years ago it would’ve been “savages” or something else.

“Hamas tries to maximize civilian casualties to pressure governments to their side”
Every single accusation is still a blatant confession.
