#GenocideJoeKnows: In every case attacks on American troops immediately went up. Within three kilometers of the target’s base of operation, attacks in the thirty days after the killing increased by forty percent. Within a radius of five kilometers, they were still up by twenty percent. The dead leader was usually replaced in twenty four hours - always within forty-eight. The new leader was almost invariably bolder, more aggressive, eager for revenge and to prove himself.

Targeting enemy leadership, it was clear, resulted in more dead Americans.

In a briefing for Odierno, the analyst responsible for the study, Rex Rivolo, put up a slide highlighting an inescapable conclusion: “HVI strategy, our principal strategy in Iraq, is counterproductive and needs to be re-evaluated.”- Andrew Cockburn

#GenocideJoeKnows NOT: But this is an #abdication of responsibility. Jewish safety in the United States is contingent on the United States remaining (some might say becoming) a pluralistic and tolerant society. No one person can guarantee that it remains that way. But I would hope Biden, as the literal president, would see this as a part of his job.

President Biden, Jewish American safety is your responsibility, not Israel’s

Over seven million Jews live in the United States. It is our president’s job to protect us, not that of a foreign country.
