18. but you're not doing something useful, you are belittling the truth
invasion is war

occupation is war

sorry, anywhere you have men in tanks and guns, and planes and bombs, flying into other people's country killing them, it's a war

i'm sorry that all wars are not grand and glorious but if you look at history the overwhelming majority of wars are pure and simple snatch and grab theft

this war the same as any other

a simple anglo-saxon word is always to be preferred to the multi-syllable euphemism
