This tweet from the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire has us stumped. Apparently, the Libertarians think that the October 7 invasion of Israel was provoked. Also provoked were 9/11 and Pearl Harbor (they forgot to add January 6). Are they saying the United States brought 9/11 and Pearl Harbor on itself?
Pearl Harbor was provoked.

9-11 was provoked.
Russia’s invasion was provoked.
Oct. 7th was provoked.
Seriously, what is this, and why hasn't it been deleted yet?
Maybe someday you’ll provoke getting votes. You’ll hit double digits some day, I’m sure.

Do multiple people run this account? If so, have them talk to each other occasionally. https://t.co/RWaZPaP0di
So let me check my notes here … the murder, torture, and rape of Israeli *civilians* was a “provoked”. The young people at the music festival had it coming? No. Just stop. This is a good reason why no one takes the LP serious.

Every couple months I see something from you guys that reminds me of why I’m not a libertarian

This is why libertarians are ignored.

Even if libertarians have worthy positions on issues, ultimately when voiced as a political ideology or philosophy it's ignoble and detestable.
Still searching for a bottom?

Pearl Harbor being provoked because we decided to stop selling gas to Japan is a very spicy take.

The dissolution of the Libertarian Party was provoked.

Bad people can justify anything by claiming it was provoked.

Delete your account.

Is this the weekend intern manning the social media accounts or what? We've seen the Libertarian Party delete embarrassing tweets before, and we hope they'll do it again.
