Least terrorist methods and goals.
This fucking ghoul right here is IMO the perfect example of the west being run by the failsons and faildaughters of empire.
The old school evil fuckers like Kissenger never believed ridiculous shit like this. They knew the entire point of endless overseas conflicts is to create more conflicts and thus more profit.
This goober on the other hand seems to genuinely believe the war on terror propaganda. Bro actually thinks the empire exists out of charity for the rest of the world, and not just endless death in the pursuit of always falling profits.
They're the otaku of the military-industrial complex. They have vanishingly few experiences with whatever came before them and are just going through the motions without prior contextual understanding. They don't know where the ideology came from so they just gobble up the pablum without knowing what the pablum came from or whether they're actually supposed to believe it.
It literally sounds like what the villain of a story based in the British empire (or any evil empire for that matter) would say.
