Going after the US and falling for one of their provocations are two totally different things. I’m not condoning this in any way, but look at Osama Bin Laden as a case study. With a handfull of people he sent the US spiraling down such that they still haven’t recovered over 20+ years later. He would not have gotten anything like that through conventional means like shooting at planes. The US has become a shell of what it was in 2001, and while it was a horrible act which can’t be condoned, it must have been an incredible success in his eyes, far more so than he had thought possible.

Rambling aside, all I’m saying is you don’t win against the strongest military in the world in a fair fight. Asymmetric warfare means taking your time and thinking outside the box.

I don’t think you really understand the situation. It’s a bully taunting. They want you to take a swing. Your reaction plays right into their hand.
