At the end of the day, you have to look at body count. Not even the greatest terrorist threat in the world is even remotely close to how many civilians are being killed every day because of your adherence to these awesome "rules of engagement" | |||

Conventional war isn't a viable option, diplomacy appears to be off the table. What other options are there? We might as well go to countries that harbor terrorists, round them up, and slaughter them, right? Do you see how toxic this reasoning is? There is no excuse for terrorism or for warcrimes. When we beat the shit out of Japan and totally occupied their country and rewrote their Constitution, did they start blowing up American civilians? No, they accepted the reality of their position, and got to work building themselves a better life. Human history is a litany of peoples being defeated and abused, but rebuilding and ultimately being okay. This was rarely if ever the result of terrorism. Even the American revolution and American Civil War were largely conventional conflicts against vastly superior, arguably oppressive powers with minimal guerrilla activity and very little killing of civilians. The only way these people are going to be okay in the long run is by building a better life for themselves, not by killing American abusers. | |||

we stop. we let muslims in the region fight htem. if they loose we care as much about what happens after as we did in Iran. we stop pretending we are humanists, trying to help them from suffering when the truth is we are spending money to make money on war. We fight the war at home, the war on poverty. Not people. | |||
