      According to the West, there are no legitimate targets on our side. Any and all attacks on Western military targets are considered terrorism.

      It is is beyond ridiculous. People allegedly attacking a US Airbase in the UK (maybe just stealing diesel) are called terrorists for attacking a military target. It is absolutely bonkers.

        Yeah I don’t think that bullshit is flying as well as it used to though. It’s too obvious who is instigating, and more people have been paying closer attention and learning about the history of the Middle East and the foreign policy of western governments. I’m encountering it more and more from people whom I would not expect it, and I get around.

        When orgs fighting fascism are regarded as terrorism then the word has clearly lost its original meaning.
