The rogue states have been doing this kind of shit for decades, albeit at a low level. It is treated mostly the same as spying and is part of an ongoing low-intensity conflict that is not treated the same as a war by leaders nor the public.

I suspect they know if Americans are killed as a direct result, things will change quickly.

Which "rogue states" do you mean?

E: Fucking Lemmy, I swear to god you have to take everything in a bad way when people are just being curious and want clarity. I don't know what a fucking "rogue state" is, I'm not from whatever country you are from and English is not my native language.

Rogue states are ones that don’t follow normal international customs and/or threaten the stability of world peace. The usual candidates from an american perspective are Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Afghanistan, and Syria.

It's all the former reddit users. That place breeds "intellectuals" who try to one-up everyone and prove they're smarter. If things don't fit in with their paradigm or echo chamber they down vote.

I'd better say that states have been doing this.
