The genius of neocon what could have been style fear-mongering is that the scary thing that ostensibly could have happened. . .did not in fact happen. If we hadnt tortured those terrorists, they would have thought us soft and attacked us again! If we hadnt dropped the bomb on Hiroshima, American soldiers wouldve lost even MORE lives! If we dont attack Iran and disrupt their nuclear program, theyll blow us all up! You can justify literally any act of foreign aggression this way. If you merely insist that by not doing something abominable, a MORE abominable future is on the horizon, you can control an entire population through fear. This is the definition of terrorism.
