Only because no other scenario was imagined.
So it would be your opinion that, if a scenario of terrorist attacks like 9-11
were somehow proposed to the FF, they wouldnt include that form of violence in
their invasion or rebellion assertion?
And if these attacks become more frequent, at what point would you consider it a
rebellion? Or is it not a rebellion because it is perped by foreigners?
Seems to me that an attack on US soil by locals is rebellion; an attack by
foreigners on US soil is an invasion.
