the A.F.R. war aims: Fortier weaponizes American condescension; the sacrifice doctrine — "Like all of them, Fortier was…"

A political-cultural reading of the U.S.A. turned into an operational asset: "The nation U.S.A. treated wheelchaired persons with the solicitude that the weak substitute for respect," and Fortier "preferred the condescension" — refusing his prosthetic legs on public transit because the "institutional 'sensitivity'" honed "his senses of purpose." The A.F.R. weaponizes American pity the way 072 diagnoses American self-contempt: the nation's performed compassion is a blind spot the insurgents roll straight through, "willing to sacrifice." (The wheelchair BODIES and the assumption-of-incapacity-exploited tactic are disability-deformity's; landed here is the political-cultural critique of U.S. solicitude-not-respect and the sacrifice doctrine.)
