- bigbugbag 10y agoHmm, in a sense you have lost because you use an undefined enemy as being the cause for misery. Come back when there is an actual definition of terrorism and your side is not guilty of hundred times more of that than the other side.
- saiya-jin 10y agoWell that's the whole point of terrorism, to create so much fear that entire population/country will become irrational and make stupid decisions that will server the perpetrators. Usually nothing more. And yes, they succeeded in that, helped greatly by US media ala Murdoch's empire (seriously, that guy did more harm to US citizens than most media-demonized guys combined - why is he not in place like Guantanamo?)
- Broken_Hippo 10y agoI've been saying the same since I saw the response after 9/11. Well, I've been thinking it. I found out it is a very unpopular thing to say living in the states, and probably just as weird living outside of it.
