War is the event. Defence and offence are the actions. Starting a war implies taking offensive actions while the target will undertake defensive actions. The target will then undertake offensive actions against the other country which will undertake defensive actions in turn. Offence and defence are both tasked to the department handling all things military. Knowing this it is rather hypocritical to call the department which is tasked with undertaking offensive actions the 'Department of Defen[cs]e'. It actually seems to come straight out of 1984 where the propaganda department is called the Ministry of Truth. Better call it for what it is - and what it used to be called - which is the Department of War. |
