255. The answer is both no and irrelevant.
And I am not "shocked", simply dismayed.

The difference between a war zone and a disaster zone is that is that the former is deliberate.

The truism that you will shoot back doesn't explain why you're there in the first place. And it doesn't excuse civilian deaths as collateral damage. And military orders often, but not always, absorb personal responsibility.

The legality of this military adventure is yet to be determined, as is its outcome.

Nice talking to you again, Nadine. We last spoke when you were defending military golf courses.
