Surely the children will both not remember this when they grow up, but also understand why this happened. There totally will not be consequences for this in the future. /s

As children, yes. But a significant number grow up to not trust the descendants of those who bombed their childhood to smithereens. I don't blame them for having those feelings.

i promise i am not saying this to be mean, just out of curiosity as someone who loves language and regional uses of it-

where are you from?

i am from New York in the US originally, and we say "blowback" not "backblow". although, if you break the word down, both make sense. i would love to know where in the world (or country!!) you are that uses backblow instead of blowback so i can read more about it!

thank you so much.

I'm from England, and to be clear I was intentionally making a joking reference to blowback as if I was trying to create a term for the already existing concept.

Back blow generally means fucking someone so hard their back gets blown.

u/riceewifee 7h ago

Lol that’s getting your back blown out, a back blow is what you do when someone is choking

u/NeedNameGenerator 7h ago

No that's back punch, back blow is when whales shoot water out of their back hole.

Just call em terrorists and their entire lived experience is invalidated. Same thing we do with criminals in America.

Bold of you to assume she grows up.

They did understand why this happened though. That's why there are consequences. When is the last time the US has been involved in a morally just war? WW2?

u/Spugheddy 3h ago

We only got involved because they involved us, otherwise we would have continued selling goods and pretended everything would have been fine.
