Is it “kinetic military action”? Is it an “extended counterterrorism operation”? Is it war? Nah. Never war.

“War” would mean that America was actually out to win against ISIS/ISIL/ISI?.
So far only ISIS has announced the intention of beating America. America just wants to manage ISIS/ISIL/ISI?. A bombing doesn’t make a war any more than Pearl Harbor did. And like Bluto said, ‘was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?’ No way. It ain’t over. It ain’t even war. The only ‘war’ the world today is the War Against Ebola and the world is losing that.
