Under what circumstances could another country kill, say, Pete Hegseth with a bomb on American soil, and it not be considered an act of war? Bombs literally only have one purpose, a weapon of war. And yes, during that attempted(and failed) coup in Venezuela, there were technically boots on the ground. So even that’s out of the window.
I didn’t say an act of war, I said a war. We did not go to war with Iran in 2020. We bombed them. We killed some of their political leaders. We did not go to war with them.
We have boots on the ground in basically every country on earth at all times. Are we at war with Mexico right now? We have boots on the ground, and have since at least the Reagan administration. Are we in a 40+ year war with Mexico?
I think you know damn well that 2026 Iran war is completely different than 2020 acts of war. I’m just not sure why you feel the need to try to use truthful but unrelated statements to spread misinformation.
Well, if you wanna get technical, the recent cartel violence that broke out in Mexico, it was revealed that 80% of the cartels weapons and straight-up military vehicles came from the US. So just like we’re funding multiple factions in the Syria civil war, and I would definitely consider a war in Syria, you could easily make the case that the US is in war in Mexico the same way. The other 20% of the cartels weapons came from Israel, but that’s a story for another day. “We bombed them, and killed some of their political leaders, we did not go to war with them” is a hell of a statement though, and would never pass the “shoe-on-other-foot” test.

I wouldn’t consider it an act of war. An act of charity to the American people, maybe.
It would be nice if some country brought democracy to the US for a change. We would even welcome them as liberators.
