It’s clear the intentions were to strike terror in an effort to bring attention to the apartheid. This does not detract from the fact that it was still terrorism.
Nelson Mandela was a terrorist while the KKK is a tax-exempt religious organization. Your definition of terrorism is racist, and boils down to “when non-whites fight back”.
The US supported apartheid in South Africa until the bitter end, even when the rest of the world stood in opposition to it. Nelson Mandela was considered a terrorist until 2008.
Your government gets a lot wrong. So I can safely ignore it.
The beauty of a democratic government is the nature of shifts in policy. It may not be able to act as swiftly as an authoritarian regime, but it does allow all sides to get their time to share input. I’ve never claimed the US to be the arbitor of morality, they’ve made their fair share of mistakes. Fortunately the democratic process allows us to Garner a better understanding as a whole, and thus work towards the solutions that being forth the most common good. Very utilitarian in nature.
Enjoy your democracy while I enjoy my high speed rail. At least until Israel orders you to bomb us.
After traveling to the US once and actually having the Acela train I was on die during the trip, is plenty of argument against whatever political system you have
My brother in Zeus. Saudi’s HSR started after and finished before California’s HSR. Your government would sooner loot the project for copper wires and steel beams to sell, so that it has money to send to Israel, than allow it to finish.
Your entire government’s purpose is to finance and aid Israel, everything else is coincidental.
Well there’s a difference in governance. If the US was not a democracy with protections for private property, HSR would’ve likely been complete. Not to mention the vast differences in terrain which pose difficult engineering questions to be answered.

US policy towards the apartheid in South Africa changed over the years. This highlights the importance of being open minded!

Watch Saudi’s HSR and weep https://youtu.be/uXtaWSnmvTg
High Speed Rail is in a Renaissance phase here in the US, it’s incredibly exciting! I’m not sure how this fits the current discourse here though.
