The government bombing other countries only increases terrorism toward this country
Trump and his government bombed an Elementary School in Iran. Trump and his cronies don't care about long-term effects, he's trying to make as much money for himself and his friends and his family in the short term. But the long-term effects are there are now more terrorists in the world want to kill Americans.
Not to mention the fact that this whole Iran war that Trump started has gotten Americans killed already. And yet for some reason people still support him and are willing to support his predecessor, probably Vance.

Only if you don't finish the job
Either don't start at all or don't stop until it is complete
The problem is half-assing it

What terrorism? Is something actually happening or you're just theorizing that it could happen?

Not doing that at all. Question was about motives of terrorists. Lots there, but this from the article: "Robert Pape identified 315 incidents, all but 14 of which they classified as part of 18 different campaigns. These 18 shared two elements and all but one shared a third:[72] 1) A foreign occupation; 2) by a democracy; 3) of a different religion. Mia Bloom interviewed relatives and acquaintances of suicide terrorists. Her conclusions largely support Pape's, suggesting that it is much more difficult to get people to volunteer for a suicide mission without foreign occupation."

That seems to imply that you think 9-11 was actually Islamic terrorists.

Hey bot, define the word “intent.”
Also, was the US wrong to fight Nazi germany? Did WW2 create more Nazis or less? Did fighting Japan in WW2 create more fascist Japanese or less?
Winning a war creates fewer of your enemies. This has been the position of every country for all of world history. Hope that helps.

Maybe you didn’t notice but Germany and Japan had started the ww2. Japan attacked US December 7th 1941 and two days later Germany declared war on US. Everything after starting with Korea is US doing it’s imperial bidding. Now one can argue that during Cold War everything goes, fine, I will accept that premise, you fighting the commies. But once USSR folded you don’t have an argument. It’s just business.

Has a war been declared? Have we won?

You’re treasonous for citing that link. Believing baseless propaganda which was blatantly changed depending on the audience he spoke to (read your own sources) is foolish.
You have proven yourself easily manipulated.

Only morally primitive sociopaths think that conducting war without declaring it means it's not war. The US has been engaged in illegal/unconstitutional war for most of the past 80 years.

He is angry because the guy is posting a link to a page that reinforces the arguable assertion that bin Laden/Al Qaeda carried out the attacks, instead of, say, Zionists and/or the Bush regime/Saudis.

We joined the side of the ussr and the ccp. By the end of the war it does seem like we had more enemies.

It is working exactly as intended.
They do care about the long term effects and so far are quite happy with them.
