I don't see how it makes a difference if an out-group is 3% or 30% responsible, whatever that means, if you can say that what the in-group did was wrong. What follows from that number?



Pretty sure I am in favor of self-defense when someone is trying to exterminate you. But the use of violence must be proportionate to the threat. If some dude in Warsaw tweets that he is trying to destroy the United States, that doesn't mean we nuke Poland, nor do I think you disagree.
For someone who doesn’t know what I’m saying, you’re doing a great job of offering the responses of someone who exactly gets my points and endeavors to counter them.
