Invasion : an act of invading especially : incursion of an army for conquest or plunder

Newspeak on your side?

You are grasping for straws. I mentioned the bombing and I was on the streets against it.

People reading this thread will know who's grasping at straws here.

Have you already asked Merriam-Webster to change the definition?
