Jus In Bello

The second of two principles contained in the "Just War Theory," Jus Ad Bellum and Jus In Bello. Jus In Bellum in Latin means "The Law in Waging War." It defines standards by which a country can conduct war maintain that they have "just" actions in war. The term was coined in the same era in which the League of Nations originated. However, it was not used in doctrine until the late 1940s. Its principles include discrimination and proportionality.

Descrimination defines legitimate targets and proportionality defines how much force to be used.

Under the guidelines of Jus In Bello, the attack on Heroshimo, Japan by US forces with the use of the atomic bomb violates both the guidelines of descrimination and proportionality.

Bill O'Reilly

Arrogant right-wing talk show host who thinks he is an expert on everything because he used to work at Inside Edition (TV News Magazine). He likes to use big, obsolete words to make himself feel smart. He lied when he said if we don't find any w.m.d. in Iraq he would apologize to the American people, and not trust the George W Bush anymore. But it sure seems like he still trusts him.

I can't stand to listen to or watch Bill O'Reilly due to the fact all he offers is spin and misinformation.

Balloon Generation

A word used to describe members of anyone graduating High School around 2011. So named for the tendencies of this generation to "demand a balloon" for doing the absolute minimum amount of work and expecting automatic gratification. More literally, this gratification is generally expected in the form of grades, popularity, etc. Generally, anyone born in the early '90s can be defined as part of the Balloon Generation, regardless of whether or not they actually exhibit the above characteristics.

You're part of the balloon generation! You think you can do the absolute minimal amount of work and then ask GIMME A BALLOON and I'll actually give you one? You're weaksauce!
