Exclamation Definitions: The US is *not* at War

In the absence of any particular state being responsible for Tuesday's terrible events, the US is most certainly not officially at war - no matter what anyone says. They can be on a war footing which is a bit different.

Some helpful definitions:

War defined

International Terrorism defined

Guvnor's views notwithstanding, it only takes one party to have a war. The other non-participant can actually lose a war they do not believe they are in. Same as bar fights, but louder, more expensive, and less easily broken up.

In the words of Dennis Miller, they "pissed off the wrong world's only superpower."

I like what the Guv has to say . I am new to the PPRune and so far think that everything that he has to say has kept me interested. Keep offering info to us ,seems there are only a few that already know everything. I dont think they have mothers! Or they would know that if you cant say something nice dont say anything at all.
