inclusion of Queen Elizabeth II as a military leader
This is the only modern war I'm aware of where the British monarch is included amongst the military leaders, either of the UK or Canada. As the head of state of those countries has no political control of whether those states go to war, it seems absurd to include them. Boynamedsue (talk) 19:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Almost all of the sources use this verbiage except for this contemporary Slate article:
"Some have scoffed at Obama’s claim that this is a multilateral campaign, noting that, on the first day, the United States fired 124 Tomahawk cruise missiles, while the British fired just two."
While it is fair to say that the overall operation was multilateral, 1) history has not looked kindly upon the adventure 2) the language about the cruise missiles specifically is misleading and should not be repeated in an encyclopedia 3) least of all but my original point in looking into it they cost between $1m-$2m a piece let alone fielding them, so the US spent at least $124,000,000 2011 dollars ($175m today) in two days of bombing.
