Another anonymous commenter who believes that anyone who worked for the US government blindly supports everything they do. Real life is more complicated than that.

I'm actually very anti-US government right now. I specifically retired because I had spent years advocating for a different direction than our government was heading, and being involved in military/politics wasn't enough to enact change at my level. I'm an activist nowadays and believe that revolution is probably the only way we're going to actually change our government for the better.

    Once again. You are an ignorant terrorist.

    All that we have mentioned has made it easy for us to provoke and bait this administration. All that we have to do is to send two mujahidin to the furthest point east to raise a piece of cloth on which is written al-Qaida, in order to make the generals race there to cause America to suffer human, economic, and political losses without their achieving for it anything of note other than some benefits for their private companies.

    This is in addition to our having experience in using guerrilla warfare and the war of attrition to fight tyrannical superpowers, as we, alongside the mujahidin, bled Russia for 10 years, until it went bankrupt and was forced to withdraw in defeat.

    All Praise is due to Allah.

    So we are continuing this policy in bleeding America to the point of bankruptcy. Allah willing, and nothing is too great for Allah.
