Even though we have long allowed our elected officials to circumvent the core of our democracy, checks and balances, by not requiring an Act of Congress to declare war, we still warred with governments; it was the Vietnam War, Korean War, and Iraq War. Not that killing civilians is ever justifiable, but it was difficult for soldiers to discern enemy combatants from civilians.

We can't say we are at war with Pakistan or Afghanistan; there is no such thing as an enemy combatant.

I do not believe Obama, Bush, or Trump are war criminals, but if Wikipedia's definition of war crime is accurate, a Pakistani could certainly make a legitimate argument that they are; not expecting action to be taken, but in an effort to hold leaders accountable and potentially influence future decisions regarding the cost to kill.

BREAKING: Civilians die in wars.

That is a pretty nonchalantly dismissive attitude. U.S. civilians don't die in wars, and thanks to drones, U.S. soldiers barely even do.

Let's declare a War on Guns so the kids shot in school can be innocent civilian casualties instead of victims.

This stuff is definitely new and not a continuous cycle of progress and backlash that's gone on forever.

The man. The myth. The legend.

yesterday in a relatively progressive northern viginia DC suburb that is know for its diversity they found white supremacist flyers posted

President Trump's first year in office proved to be just as racially divisive as his campaign — but even more consequential.
"President Trump in 2017 reflected what white supremacist groups want to see: a country where racism is sanctioned by the highest office, immigrants are given the boot and Muslims banned," said Heidi Beirich, director of the SPLC's Intelligence Project. "When you consider that only days into 2018, Trump called African countries 'shteinholes,' it's clear he's not changing his tune. And that's music to the ears of white supremacists."

It was a year that saw the "alt-right," the latest incarnation of white supremacy, break through the firewall that for decades kept overt racists largely out of the political and media mainstream.
