[kj] KJ in LA

[sade1]

  Even when we go up in flames we do it in multiple platforms** all across the map and 
  we always also involve "the international community" and "coalition partners"because it
  is, you know, immoral,  to, um.. act alone/ 'unilaterally.'
  
**& always start in 
      someone else's 
           country first
