So there can't be a war on bowling because there are thousands of leagues not connect to each other, even though they are all bent on bowling?

Yeah, those damn crusaders messing with Moslems in 1095 AD, have hamstrung us from morally preventing retaliation 900 years later.

We'll use strategic objective and strategic significance, interchangeably even though they're different animals.

It's so nice to have all these terrifically complex matters distilled down to two choices. What a wonderful service.

The Marshall plan (nation building) made everyone think this is normal and required. While successful, it was an aberration, markedly different from the treatment of defeated, captured territory and populations in the past.

Bowling is not mythical just because it's not monolithic. It just takes balls.
