Taking into account his second tweet ("I took it very seriously, but it would be weird if some average college student was obsessed with this."), I do think he's implying that caring for any cause outside the US is weird at least (expect for professionals like himself of course)

But I also think it's all bad faith to shift focus from the current events from a natsec worshipping, PMC shitlib as he would clearly have remembered the protests against the Iraq war by a big section of the american public
