What irks me is the use of the word war, even
as a metaphor. You can't end what never began.
Congress needs to deauthorize the use of military
force, or somehow be held accountable for the
military force they authorize. The Kellogg-Briand
Pact tried to hold accountable the peoples who
war, so those people simply stopped declaring it.
Metaphor or no, the Horton book looks interesting.
The hawks in Congress probably think it's cute when
Americans protest something that is not happening.

The book is incredible. It's amazing how little of a chance of "victory" there ever was.
