War in Afghanistan sues Marvel for copyright infringement over 'Infinity War' film

Filed · 1533

KABUL — Comic giant Marvel has found itself embroiled in a messy copyright battle with the War in Afghanistan after calling its latest Avengers movie "Infinity War," Duffel Blog has learned.

"We take great umbrage at the lack of consideration on the part of Marvel," the War said in a statement. "Everyone knows that there is only one war that is going to go on forever, and we are it."

As the War in Afghanistan reached its 16th birthday and extended its lead as the longest war in U.S. history, it has become very particular about the way it is treated in public discourse.
