That is your justification for criminal behaviour?
By that logic every country in the world would be right to bomb the US into rubbles.
It is no wonder, that the US is losing its grip on soft power, as they violate international rules and say “haha we have the military for it fuck you.” The US will end up being that isolated military dicatorship everyone else hates, but noone does something about because they got nukes. With this fascist attitude of the american people, that you also like to rub into everyones face, you’ll eventually be like North Korea.
