    I don’t care what you say. If you attack an American without provocation you should get this kind of response. Shareholders, businesses, capitalism are not the reason for this.

      The biggest problem is, they lost our trust. They lied their way into countless wars for profit, and now our first thought on hearing something like this is “I bet they staged that to start another war”

      Fuck the US war machine, and fuck the people that support it

        Fair and valid, But i will still support reactions like this to verified instances of attacks on our troops.

        To be fair though “countless wars for profit” is an exaggeration. I would agree with “to many wars for profit” one would be to many. I do agree with your sentiment overall.

          Why are our troops there? They are there to support a genocidal regime, our ally. Our presence there was the problem, not the response to it.
