Saying “The United States is a terrorist country” is exactly not blaming the working class people. The state itself is run by and operated by fascist terrorists.

I hope you don't think it's just the current administration. I don't blame the majority of the populace (in the same way I don't blame the average Israeli or Russian for example), but as a political entity this is nothing new for the USA.

Edit: or rather, from the outside looking in, this doesn't feel particularly off brand

You disagree with the current war, the entire world is on fire because of US imperialism and colonization, and you can't distance yourself from all the benefits and pride you get from the "good side" of America.

Just like you can't separate America from it's history of being built on the backs of slaves and the institutional oppression that still comes from that, you can't separate your current comforts as an American from their direct causes: oppression and stealing the resources of other nations and using all your "most deadly military's" best stealth bombers and biggest bombs to bully the world through threats of regime change and economic sanctions. Trump isn't what's bad about America, he's just an accelerated conclusion to neo-liberal politics, this is Bill Clinton's America!

I’m an American and I hate to break this to you but the people elected this clown. That’s how it works here. You didn’t vote for him? Okay. But until you’re doing absolutely everything you can to prevent people like him being elected, you don’t get to just shrug off responsibility. I know exactly two people who are doing everything they can, and neither of them is me.

Isn't that what the US constantly does other countries?

I would agree with you.

but after years of propaganda saying that Gaza needs to be killed because of a 2006 election. I think that logic needs to be applied to the country making that propaganda. The US voted for it very recently, no excuses.

This orange maniac and his entourage could only get this far because of a good portion of "the people".

I live in the US. I blame 40% of the people at a minimum, and likely more than that.

You kinda have to, as it is a democracy, at least on paper...

What an odd choice... I know you're referring to the USS Maine and invasion of Cuba, but that was not the start.

I've heard that before too but if you are going to try and convince anyone an actual source will help.

Grab it with your finger and then move your finger down, you can then swipe left and right without blocking it

Bunker busters only have about 2300kg of payload, the rest of the weight is the penetrator body.

The bombs are rated at destroying a 20m radius.

There is some evidence that these penetrators can be guided away from targets by clever architecture. (A reinforced diamond cross-swcrioned concrete beam for instance can guide the penetrator away from its target)

Long story short we don't know if these did anything.

I thought I could see piles of debris at the bottoms of some slopes in the after pictures which weren't there in the before pictures, but now that I'm looking at them again, I'm no longer sure that what I'm seeing isn't just a difference in the shadows. (Presumably the pictures were taken at different times of the day.) I'm going to edit my original statement.
