why is it not an act of war?

the mercenaries were soldiers and prosecuting the war

[certrtwngnut]

This administration is like a bad episode of the Twilight Zone. Not even Rod Serling could make this up.

[ThomasMore]

This administration has had too many years in office. They have forever killed what was once a shining “city on a hill” that promised freedom for all the earth. I despise this current POTUS and his cronies for the destruction they have caused.

“State Department Spokesperson Jen Psaki”

She should be really proud of little self.

[The Great RJ]

In George Orwell's novel 1984 , the totalitarian state entrenched itself by forcing a new laguage called newspeak which eliminated all words that might allow subversion of Big Brother's dictatorship. Even harboring ideas contrary to the state was a "thought crime"

To-may-to - To-mah-to. Same thing.
The left is twisting the language to twist our minds. Don't be fooled.

“why is it not an act of war?”

I wonder what it would be called if the Obama or biden families were the victims?

[Mears]

Sort of like the “people of color” thing or the “person of interest” thing.

Do they all think we are stupid?

.

[5th MEB]

Yes they do; and unfortunately in about 80% of the electorate they are correct.

[puppypusher]

The entire staff of the State department should be fired.I haven’t seen a bigger bunch of clowns since Chevy Chase was in Spy’s Like US.

They’re an embarassment to the country.

[chris37]

Whatever, Dept. of Stupid Girls.

[bunkerhill7]

Confucius say man who split hair lose head.

[logi_cal869]

Then Beirut ‘83 and Khobar Towers ‘96 were ‘workplace violence’. /s

Whatever.

I just hope they keep making it clear where they stand...

[BlueNgold]

Honest question...

Is there a language for which this seemingly silly parsing of phrases matters?

For better or worse, I wonder if it’s not the English, but the translation, that’s causes this to keep coming up.

[longfellow]

Terrorists or assholes that commit acts of terrorism all look the same to a Marine’s M16.
