    Yeah, I know. But the word “aggression” is (intentionally, hats off to US propaganda) vague; the user I was responding to interpreted it as “launching an attack into a territory generally recognized as foreign”, so I’m going with that definition. I generally do not argue on terminology, since it’s not practical to do so. But thanks for the heads up!
