Tim Mak, Daily Beast: Eric Holder: ‘We’re Not at a Time of War’

The Attorney General tells reporters that the U.S. isn’t at war against ISIS—never mind all those airstrikes, and all those troops deployed in Iraq.

U.S. and coalition forces have conducted nearly 2,300 airstrikes hitting more than 4,800 targets in Iraq and Syria since August 2014, as part of the ongoing campaign to defeat the so-called Islamic State. Three service members have already perished in these ongoing operations against ISIS.

But according to Attorney General Eric Holder, “we're not at a time of war.”
