Have you read history? Authoritarian places need external enemies to rally people behind so that the population will ignore whatever bullshit they do to exploit and abuse them. The only rule is "don't be the one to lose". As long as the theocracy does not surrender, they are winning.
See also : The US after 9/11. We're STILL dealing with the fucking bullshit fallout from that.
Dude, they're continuing to kill school children. 911 was a one off that made everyone scared. Scared, yes. Bombing the shit out of your citizens, no.
