Oh god. Make calls. No f-ing ballroom. And the DOD must stay the DOD.

I don't actually care what it costs because if they change it to DOW we MUST change it back to DOD -- and happily pay to do so.

WORDS MATTER.

We are a nation with a military that serves our National Defense.

The War on Iran is a CRIME. From the outset, it violates international law and our own DOD Law of War Manual.

The mentality behind renaming DOD to DOW is the mentality of WAR CRIMINALS. It is the mentality of a crazy person who says "no stupid rules of engagement," tossing out the ENTIRE Law of War Manual with one sentence.
