My problem with terms is that we often use them as more than descriptive in nature but as an end unto themselves....to define our present and future actions.
Our primary problem is we still have not defined the 'enemy'...non nation state organizations and "individuals" that are making war on our Nation.
We need to declare war. Period.
Declare war on non Nation state org, name them, declare our intent to destroy them unconditionally and thru any/all means.

We've complicated the situation and can actually simplify it.
