Foreign diplomats can get confusing. There occasionally no differences in actions which state departments attempt to distinguish. For example:
An “incursion” is differentiated from an “invasion”.
Seems like a distinction were there is none..
A sortie becomes an attack, and the result is the same, namely…
APPROPRIATION AND OCCUPATION…THEY ARE IN.

Wyatt alerts anytime a person comes to the door. Jonah, by contrast, can sleep though the the incursion.

I think your dogs should run for president and vice president of the usa. They can hash out which is which. They seem much more on the ball than the last/current four.

They are a good pair for sure…though sure about political skills.

I would accept an appropriation and an occupation by those two anytime. And all the other words you used, LOL!
