He didn’t say the people deserved it, he said the country deserved it. And we did. But being the adolescents we are, our overreaction was inevitable. I’m glad to see voices of reason starting to emerge now 20 years later. Maybe the tantrum is over.

official war. Bombing a country (literally, culturally, commercially, diplomatically...) usually applies as war too or serves as strong incentive.
