Funding is not sufficient reason for war. If it were, then we should have attacked the Soviet Union for Viet Nam or them us for Afghanistan. Or Britain against France and Spain for the Revolutionary War. Or Lincoln against Britain for the Civil War. Funding is a police action/diplomatic response. By going to war over funding, we betray our history and everything we might say to tell others we are the good guys can get lost.
