Mainland

[edit]

Pearl harbor isn't part of the 'mainland'. Neither are the Philippines. Do these belong in this article an does the title need to be changed? RJFJR (talk) 18:58, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]


What about the George Floyd Riots

[edit]

100 days of terror feels like it should be on the list.

Support This was definitely an attack. Pipe bombs were planted. The U.S. capitol was breached. It is called an attack by many reliable sources. Making a similar edit will be doing our job as Wikipedians, and calling it what it is.
Oppose Without inclusion criteria, it is hard to know what to include. However, the attack on the U.S. capitol was a domestic attack on a specific building within the borders of the United States. Technically, it was a crime that was dealt with by law enforcement agencies. It was not an attack on U.S. territory by external forces, with the intent to either alienate territory, or wage war upon the country's territory, generally. It is inconsistent with most of the other article already on the list, which were primarily military actions by foreign military forces, rather than simply civil disorder or domestic terrorism. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 09:49, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
