Sadly, no. We fall for the same shit over and over. Two people get their heads cut off by ISIS and the American public loses its collective mind.

Quote:What kind of military action are Americans ready to support in Iraq and Syria?
More than 6 in ten say that it is in the U.S. national interest to take military action against ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
That is in large part the natural result of the diet of the self-contradictory American exceptionalism insane bullshit spoon fed to Americans at every level. It is taken for granted that Americans can not be seen to be vulnerable to the normal dangers associated with being citizen of a world in which there are violent conflicts. So america is like the bull in the arena and is easily goaded into charging at any piece of waving red cloth with one or two American heads on it.
