- JumpCrisscross 7mo ago> "Iran's defense effort" would be correct They’re at war. It’s a war effort. Mincing words doesn’t change that. America didn’t wage a defense against Japan after Pearl Harbor, it waged war. War is both offensive and defensive, the original language is fine.
- drysine 7mo agoIt matters who started the war. The US is waging the war against Iran, the Iran is defending. If you don't make this distinction, a killer and a policemen who shot him are both murderers.
