You wanted ruthless bastards who would uphold this system of American military dominance and stomp its critics to oblivion, lads. You spent years demanding it! Here it is: exactly what you ordered, more successful than you could possibly have imagined.

Is the Premier saying that the attacks were in part because pro-Palestine marches often hold images of the genocide of Gaza? We don’t want to see those things - is that what he means?
