When the US and their buddies bombed the fuck out of Iraq and Afghanistan, and we all gathered around to watch the display of “shock and awe” did we bother to find out what they were bombing? Or did we just just go “take that, Taliban and Al-Qaida”?

I was a teenager when that happened and didn't give a fuck about what's going on in the world, honestly. I didn't particularly care for 9/11 either tho, so there's that.
