Getting back to your original posting:

First of all, my whole posting was tongue-in-cheek, which everyone else seems to have gotten.

Anyhow, does it makes sense that "A formal declaration of war" has somewhat more legal force than "An Atlantic headline writer declaring them a hostile foreign power" ?

Thanks for explaining. Today was my day to not get a joke on the internet :)
