Could it be that they're all terrorists because the US says so?

Why aren't US attacks "terrorist attacks"?

It's all how global politics works, China is working towards the aim of controlling enough countries that it can do whatever it likes and the UN will never condemn them.

Doesn't make it right. Doesn't make invading Iraq better than bombing some civilians in America.

Huh? Why is targeting "innocent civilians" an issue here?

"the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians,"

It doesn't say "targeting innocent civilians" here, does it. Or correct me, did my eyes just give the fuck up. What I read is "unlawful use of violence and intimidation".

Are you saying that the invasion of Iraq did not involve "violence"? By invading Iraq the US managed to get upwards of 1 million people killed through blatant stupidity on the part of Bremer and Bush.

Disbanding the Iraqi Armed Forces and Police was one of the most criminal acts ever seen in that country. It led to so many problems.

So you'd say "they didn't target innocent civilians", well, they did. Just not necessarily in the traditional manner you're trying to make this.

No, let's try this. A voter is a person who gets to decide how the government works. Is a voter "innocent" of the crimes of the country? Are US citizens "innocent" of the crimes of invading the country? They elected Bush, they supported the war, they supported those whose policies against Middle Eastern oil rich countries has caused so much friction which led to 9/11.

The only way they're innocent is if you ignore everything.

Who decides they're terrorists? Oh, wait, the US does.

So, get this, this is your narrative.

The US says this group is a terrorist group. The terrorist group says the US is a terrorist group. The terrorist group attacks the US, oh, they're bad. The US attacks the said terrorist group, they're good.

How?
