Original Note:
This isn’t all that “history has taught us.” The CIA coined “blowback” to describe violent unintended consequences of US foreign intervention. “More chaos, death, and destruction” comes not just from failure to enforce a “price,” but also as a result of that enforcement. https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/blowback/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowback_(intelligence)#cite_note-1
