Eliminate forever arguments over pre-war excuses for waging war!

[LynnTheDem]

The POTUS, be that a (D) or an (R), can simply point to a nation on the map and demand US forces "Invade!".

Then AFTER the war Americans can argue various justifications for having attacked a nation! It's ever so much easier to come up with reasons for having attacked a nation AFTER attacking it than before, and after all, pre-war excuses mean nothing whatsoever to many Americans; once they're proved false, new justifications are thought up and the pre-war justifications are dropped down the ol Memory Hole anyways.

So let's just skip the whole pre-war justification crap and let the POTUS wage whatever wars he wants. We'll look for all the silver lining excuses afterwards.

Just think of all the pre-war arguments we'd avoid!

1. It is official policy, now.

Shoot first, and ask no questions.

2. Yep, we've officially adopted Hitler's wars of aggression policy. But we

can go even further by totally eliminating the farce of pre-justifying our future wars of aggression.

It'll save so much aggro and freyed tempers over something that becomes meaningless before the war's even ended!

And we already have some sure-fire post-war excuses that'll suit every war;

-"We didn't kill as many people as Hitler did."

That one has a built-in time limit, but it's good for at least another war or two.

-"We're liberating them."

As our "liberation" totally ignores what the "liberated" people want even when they don't want us to "liberate" them in the first place, and as occupation by us is deemd by us to be the same as "liberation", as is our killing the other people, there's no come-back to slap down this excuse. Or none that makes a dent into the very dim minds of so many Americans.

-"They could have been a possible future threat to us."

Another argument impossible to slap down.

-"We can't wait until an actual threat emerges."

Well that one's good for preventively annihilating all known galaxies.
