Okay, I used the wrong word. The difference in the two things we're describing is: the specific (stated) reason why the troops are there. Which is highly debatable. We're framing it differently, but as a practical matter the results are the same.
I'm saying there may be a good reason for us to be over there, but, mysteriously we are silent on that point.
As a result, we've barrelled into a war with no hope of sustained political support.
