One of the last lame gasps of imperialism. Or rather military adventurism.
Oh Imperialism is alive and well, and being actively practiced by a number of states, including, but not limited to China, Russia, Israel, the USA, France, and Germany.
Sometimes benign, sometimes not.
If you include "economic imperialism", maybe so.
In my view, international politics is always economically driven. For the larger powers, economic policies are backed up by military force. Consider the East India Company, and others of that ilk.

Yep.
Then there's the call to Greater Russia, Chinese worship of the state, and the "They Hate our Freedom" nonsense.
It doesn't take much to rile the mob, and get them to fall into line.

Shorter Cormac "I claim their claim is bogus."
Logic fail and a lolwut.

Troll is unfair Cormac. Underweight paraplegic aborted goblin foetus perhaps.

You can try and rule a war 'illegal' but I'm not sure how sinking a warship is any more or less wrong than killing a solider on the field
When only criminals carry guns the police know exactly who to shoot!
