If you read what I wrote you would see that I say, these issues should be addressed, I just feel that treating them like a "war" is counterproductive.

This is a good pont. I was about to reply to say something along the lines of
" 'war' isn't supposed to be meant literally in this context, so what's the big deal?".
But yes, you are right, presenting the issues using a war metaphor is probably the wrong way to go about things.
