Every single nation on Earth would have reacted to this with a full-on war

I find it a bit bizarre that people keep using this talking point when there's ample evidence that other countries do not react to terrorism by slaughtering thousands of innocent civilians.

Many countries have shown themselves able to respect international law. Britain for example managed not to massacre the children of Ireland en masse when it was dealing with the IRA.
