Using the military for extrajudicial killings is very significant no matter what you feel.

What you cite, of course, are insignificant and meaningless.

Such respect for life and rule of law....

As to the name change, there is something to be said for making clear that the "defense" department lives for fighting wars and nothing else.

Maybe the dumbest thing I've heard you say in a while.

So, defense of the homeland is a PR, just verbal cover up.
The real purpose of US military is to start and conduct wars...
How nice...
