You're like really mad about this while being completely obtuse. Relax.

The Mujahedeen weren't as organized or as unionized, they were scrambled together to fight the Russians. When that was over another imperial force was pushing onto them, now organized they sort of merged with radicalized groups to form what is the Taliban. I had to Google his name but Jalauddin Haqqani is an exact example of what I mean, cut his teeth fighting Russians and moved to fighting US/NATO.

The ideology they share is main entire reason they were fighting in the first place that you're completely overlooking. The entire reason any of this happened. To fight imperial powers, to remove them from their country. Which is the same thing the sons of liberty wanted hence the comparison.

They're not vaguely nonsecular afghan paramilitaries. They're people motivated to fight western influence and were lining up under dozens of labels to do so.

How is this hard to understand?

Comparisons aren't exact matches but the relationship still stands. Individuals are tied to both, ideology they both share exists.

You're trying to paint them as two totally different things and they're not. You're comparing apples and pears

I'd still say it's related

The sons of liberty didn't set up America but they certainly played a huge role.

And likely some people were involved with both.

Except in your analogy there are no women or children or noncombatants. So you think it makes sense. But it's more like if you had an army of knights vs an army of peasants but both armies had babies tied to them and your goal is to stop the baby killing.

Removing armor does nothing.

The casualty ratio is because it's specifically not a war. Israel claiming it is a war is part of their push. I know you know that though.

So why didn't MTG try to pass legislation to remove that fleet? Because that wasn't her goal. Instead she managed to sow more division and get nothing done while stroking you all and making you feel justified and giving you a place to put your anger.

How does that change my statement?
