Seriously, short of a nuke, how much can he actually escalate? He’s basically thrown what he can at them without risking any other front. This is an empty threat.
And before anyone has anything smart ass to say, make it any 30% of the country you like…
I am seriously asking, was this what the reaction was like in Nazi Germany too? We are literally watching a systematic genocide and torture of an entire group of people and most of the world is doing nothing.
