Someone told me today that acts of terror achieve nothing. I had to remind him that the whole reason we were having this conversation was because of a country that was built on acts of terror.

    Adventurism is worse than organized violence but better than doing nothing. The real question is whether adventurism is better than organized nonviolence. You’re not going to take down the war machine by killing randos, but you’re also not going to take down the war machine through peaceful marches either. Which is less effective, killing cogs that are easily replaceable or holding protests that can be easily ignored?
