So if Libyan forces had managed to shoot down a western bomber, you would consider it a war?

    Only when the US and Libya officially declare war on each other is it war.

    The US hasn't declared war on anyone since WWII is it your opinion that it had not been at war since then?

    Ok I'm gonna be honest I'm probably wrong, I was thinking semantically but googling that was a surprise for me. Just didn't want the hexbears to be right.

    Its cool that you admitted you just didn't want anyone from hexbear to be right. That takes a lot of insight. You should consider opening your mind now to the possibility that you could be wrong about much more. You reflexive distaste for hexbear probably has more to do with your own cognitive dissonance than whether our opinions are wrong. Most of the people (bots) on hexbear were (are) libs too, but at some point opened their minds and began to approach history, political-economy, and current events with a more critical eye.
