Very creative POV from US Military
Very creative point of view from US military.
"The suicides of three detainees at the US base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, amount to acts of war."
They say it is an asymmetrical warfare waged against the US by the dead detainees when they killed themselves. I get the asymmetrical part, but I still fail to understand the warfare part.
Living in India which is plagued by terrorist threats to its being, I understand that things like these are necessary up to a point to ensure the integrity of the nation state. But to claim it as an act of War borders on ludicrous. ¶ 3:51 PM
