If I'm in Toronto and you plan to kill the "terrorist" pacifist you
probably want to use nukes to make sure you get me. Puppet won't mind
if he's killed because collective punishment is absolutely fine in his
book. He'll be missed for all the kindness and love he brought into
this world.

Come to think of it I've been to around 40 US states too (Last time
I was there I was visiting an old Jewish girlfriend of mine who went
to NYU) However, now that so many on this forum have seen through my
elaborate decades long plot to get America and "the Jews" perhaps you
should nuke all the US cities I've visited to get to all my pacifist
collaborators all plotting to get you too.

Conversation with Hermann Goering in his cell on the evening of 18
April 1946, as the Nuremberg trials were halted for a three-day Easter
recess:

"Why, of course, the people don't want war," Goering shrugged. "Why
would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the
best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one
piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia
nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is
understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who
determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the
people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a
Parliament or a Communist dictatorship."

"There is one difference," the interviewer pointed out. "In a
democracy the people have some say in the matter through their elected
representatives, and in the United States only Congress can declare
wars."

"Oh, that is all well and good, but, voice or no voice, the people can
always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you
have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the
pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.
It works the same way in any country."
