There is fighting back, and then there is their response.

Think of it like the Proud Boys went to Mexico and gunned down a small town and took hostages back to Texas. Mexico attacks the Proud Boys in response, then starts wiping out hospitals, schools, residential zones in Oklahoma and New Mexico, places and people that have nothing to do with the Proud Boys. And the world stands by and watches.

Do you want a closer comparison? And you don't even need to imagine.

The US army stealing land from natives and saying the natives are the bad guys because they retaliate against the occupation.
