Are American civilians really innocent? Let us bear in mind that the years of savagery by the Republicans in Iraq and Afghanistan were a direct result of the vast majority of the residents of the United States voting for the Republicans in the elections. Those who did NOT vote for the Republicans voted for other terrorist groups, like the various wings of the Democrats. Basically no one in the United States voted against state terrorism, because that option was not on our ballots.

Would this justify the invasion and massacre of American civilians? I hope not.
