They apparently fired the brainchild behind AMA public relations, and did it rather unceremoniously . That's at least according to twitter.

That initial shut down was, according to the top mod of the subreddit, done because when Taylor was let go, it "pulled the run" out from under the moderators who relied on her to run the popular Ask Me Anything sessions.

Context like going over various domestic terrorist attacks and also that this was highly unusual for a foreign entity to do something of that scale on American Soil

She also said that very likely the entire nation would 1) become very racist towards anyone who looked like the offending group and 2) would want the president to bomb the poo poo out of anyone even remotely involved and 3) would become highly militaristic

When things became more clear about it being in the Middle East she pointed to the Soviets on why that might be a very bad idea

Well the full context in that scenario would be that we had been leveraging oil interests against the japanese and playing economic proxy games against them that would constitute incredibly aggressive actions on our part and then feigned surprise when they reacted. Which also conveniently enough turned around the public opinion on involvement in WW2, an engagement that politicians were chomping to enter but the public at large was opposed to, funny that.

soviets brought communism to the mideast and attempted to destroy israel, the socialist land of milk and honey, for doing communism right

America would not turn against Israel.

Remember when some Palestinian group wanting attention claimed they'd done 9/11, before realizing 'oh poo poo america is very mad like a bear stung by a thousand bees will be'
