Who elects the government in a democracy? Civilians. Who is the drive force for any meaningful change in the regime? Civilians. So yes, its not a surprise civilians of a given regime suffer the consequences. In fact, that is the main premise of terrorism - bring consequences of the collective decisions closer to home.

What, did you expect to be morally above any other faction labelled as a "terrorist"? You aren't. I, as a citizen of a NATO country, obviously avoid countries where myself can be confused with the actions of my government. That is common sense.

You may argue "but I didn't agree with X or Y decision" - yes, but did you present yourself to scrutiny? Did you try to change things? Did you do any meaningful action to actually change the political course? Of course not, like most of us (myself included) don't. But don't try to skip on the responsibility - you, your people as a whole are responsible for the actions of your government.

Your hot take loses all credibility when you say you support indiscriminate killing of civilians, aka terrorism. I'm surprised nobody noticed this sooner.

I did not say that, and I do not support that - at all. What I said is, I *understand* how someone may react towards you specifically because you *represent* a nation that did X that impacted their lives, because of something (scratch what it doesn't apply) you did/your government did/your government supported.

Geez, are you *that* dense? Or just american? Cuz just being american would explain a lot.

And killing of enemy civilians is called "war". I like you keep post-1950's ideas, but the rest of the world hasnt caught on yet.

Terrorist advocate uses ad hominem. What a surprise
