So if someone in Somerville decided to kill a cop or two, then the
government would be justified to kill you, rape your wife, kill your
family, rape your neighbors' wives, kill their families, and then burn
down your home and the entire neighborhood. Is that what you're
saying?
The rapes and slaughter of Rohingyas has been going on for years.
Last year, Rohingya activists killed some border guards, and it
happened again a couple of weeks ago. But that doesn't justify the
massive scorched earth slaughter that's going on now. Maybe it will
turn into an ethnic war, but it hasn't so far, and I don't believe
that it will unless some other nation (Bangladesh) intervenes
militarily.
Did you miss the part where I said "no good guys"? Neither side is justified. The point remains that you tell only half the story.
