Dobbs: “Absent casualties, and that is killed and wounded, this is no different than Pearl Harbor”

From the December 20 edition of Fox Business' Lou Dobbs Tonight:

LOU DOBBS (HOST): The Obama administration felt we had to have a little agreement about the fact -- please, China, don't steal from us, this would offend our sensibilities. Hell, we should -- I can't understand why we wouldn't go to war over this kind of monstrous theft.

...

I don't frankly understand this. Absent casualties, and that is killed and wounded, this is no different than Pearl Harbor. I mean, we are watching the destruction of hundreds of thousands, hundreds of millions and billions of dollars every year.

...

We'll find out if we get their attention, because this is, without question, war. It may be a cold war, it may ultimately be confrontation, but it's a war, and nobody should mistake that.
