    Nah, it’s political posturing. The words are less than meaningless. The point is they’re building the synthetic casus belli. This shouldn’t be surprising or new information to you. If it is, we’re fucked.

      Sounds like you agree that their threats to Canada are serious, even if the details are nonsense.

          Then I don’t. Can you explain? I thought since a casus belli is a pretext for war, that you must agree the USA is threatening Canada. And I thought that by “synthetic casus belli” you would mean that they’re cooking up pretexts for hostility.
