Belligerence and non-belligerence
editSo, if a state is not non-belligerent, i.e., if it fights in a war, is it belligerent? What if a state is merely defending itself? Should it be called belligerent, then?
What a way to piss on the monkeys of the lower classes and make them look bad for getting angry! Belligerence. I sure hope they know what they're doing. Scott H 11:07, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
- A belligerent is any country which is fighting a war, regardless of who started it. It doesn't imply aggression. BillMasen (talk) 05:05, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
- Alright, I was thinking of belligerence as a word that had a negative connotation. I suppose that if you define it that way, it doesn't. Scott H 11:07, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
