How could it be “hostilities” when it isn’t a war, it’s a “kinetic military action”. It’s not bombs they are dropping, they are “regime change encouragement devices”.

who argued that the United States military’s activities fell short of “hostilities.”

That reminds me of this: "Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them." - George Orwell

Only a liberal could believe that bombing a sovereign country, i.e. attacking someone physically isn't hostile, but the mere ownership of a gun is.

Meanwhile, the War continues, with rebels engaged in hot fighting in the city of 1/4 million, Dafniya, which is 20 miles closer to Tripoli than Misurata. For military buffs, the video and videos on other links shows actual fighters shooting at their enemy. Unfortunately, my audio doesn’t work, and I don’t know enough to interpret what is actually happening in the videos or the arms being used.
