RE: We want to go to war over an adolescent boy movie?
Who said anything about going to war?
Here’s Obama:
“No, I don’t think it was an act of war, I think it was an act of cybervandalism that was very costly, very expensive,” Obama said in an interview with CNN aired on Sunday, adding, “We take it very seriously.”
And here are a few other comments:
“We will respond, we will respond proportionally, and in a place and time that we choose,” Obama said at his year-end news conference. Why should we be responding offensively at all? As the Wall Street Journal’s Danny Yadron reported, a movie studio doesn’t reach the US government’s definition of “critical infrastructure” that would allow its military to respond under existing rules, but that didn’t stop the White House from calling the Sony hack a “national security issue” just a day later.
