re: #355 EPR-radar

That is why I deliberately specified the early part of Bush’s first term. Assassinating Bush could be seen as a rational attempt to preserve Iraqi lives in the face of a threat posed by a war mongering US president.

IIRC, we were engaged militarily before the Bush II inauguration, enforcing the no-fly zone. What we are failing to grasp is that the “Global” part of the GWOT and earlier actions has eroded national sovereignty to the point that the legal constructs don’t describe reality. We haven’t made much effort to develop new ones.
