Quick: How many countries was America at war with last year?

If you accept the old fashioned notion that to drop a bomb on a country is to be at war with it, the answer is, oh, half a dozen or so. As Peter W. Singer points out in a New York Times opinion piece, since the beginning of last year we’ve conducted drone strikes in six countries: Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia… and… and… well, Singer doesn’t list them, so I’m not sure what the sixth one is.
