Not every nation thinks it has a God-given right to go half-way around the world and bomb other nation's bases, let alone schools. The kids at Fort Bragg Literacywatsdat Junior High have more to worry about violence-wise from each other cf. some imaginary foreign threat.

Again, really difficult concept to grasp. Take some time.

In my defense, the likelihood that the US has schools on bases did occur to me. It's just I think you shouldn't put schools on or near bases and expect them to not get bombed, if not by accident. So I think it applies to all parties.

I would pause at this assertion. The US is a global thing, with global friends and enemies. Iran being one of our big foes is a knowing thing.

You have a good message in general but here at hacker news we try to avoid personal attacks and that sort of thing. Just letting you know why you’re being flagged; but I do agree Americans are generally clueless.
