I'm saying that again because you're points are devolving into absurdity. You're clearly exaggerating with your examples of what war is but I don't know if you're doing that intentionally or that you're just ignorant of what war is. I can't take you seriously when you're doing something like that repeatedly either way. I try to treat everyone as a sensible person that is intelligent will debate using logic but you're going off the rails with this. I'm not interested in continuing conversations with people who are being silly.

 

sil·ly

/ˈsilē/

adjective

1.

having or showing a lack of common sense or judgment; absurd and foolish:

"another of his silly jokes"

So, you say that they're not attempting to destory governments, I say that they're trying to overthrow the Syrian government (and the Houthi regmine in Yemen too, for that matter), and you say that my response is not based on logic? It's also because your checklist of what constitutes a war is too limited in today's world, where the majority of conflicts do not involve declarations of war, and where the United States has such power that they can keep the conflict entirely out of American territory, that I gave the North Korean example: it's supposed to be absurd, and if you saw it that way it was the whole point, because you used the exact same logic to say that the United States wasn't at war.

SK went to war with SK. It was declared and it fits the definition of war. All of the other examples you mentioned are absurd. My definition fits perfectly with today's definition of it. You're the one that is confused on this. 

Since you're still not getting it. 

war

/wôr/

noun

1.

a state of armed conflict between different nations or states or different groups within a nation or state:

 

The US is not at war with those countries.
