Wally the snake: U.S. “unfair” to fight with modern weapons, should use front loading muskets…

Thanks Nachum.

Muslim Waleed Aly, (w)academic and (token) ABC host, is angry that US soldiers are fighting in ways which makes it impossible for the Taliban to kill them:

[Drones] so radically and fundamentally alter the nature of war that they risk making war seem far less grave, and far easier to wage. Each side confronts the other, with the risk of death and defeat. In short, war should come at a cost. That contract is shredded when you’re attacked by something that cannot itself be killed. It’s not remotely a fair fight.

IOW, what's his FR nick?

Also, from now on, no one side should be allowed numerical superiority.

if you’re fighting fair, you’re losing...

Napalm, napalm, napalm. Don’t want ‘em to blow apart. Want ‘em to run around screaming and slapping at themselves, go down slowly and in horrible, horrible pain.

I’d been kinds “blue” today, but this actually made me laugh.

I’m all for fighting the old fashioned way. Flaming catapults, boiling oil... use your imagination.

Here’s my policy:

Scorched earth. Deal with it.

I’ve heard of fighting fair in war. Once I was actually in a war, I decided I wanted nothing to do with it.

Dear Sheethead at MSNBC,
Fair? Tell that to the people who died on 9/11. You think drones are bad? Do you remember hijacked jetliners?

If you find yourself in a fair fight a reevaluation of tactics is required.

Test pilot Don Evans told the story of encountering a Mig-17 over Korea whose pilot surprised him with his skill. He said that after the second pass, “Both of us got the same idea at the same time - ‘This is too close to being a fair fight!’"

Your #48, my #49. LOL!

Re post 37: Then our problem is solved. At least it is worth a try, isn't it?

Maybe a demonstration at a religious site in Iran? Are we so civilized that we will let them run all over us?

[Former Proud Canadian]

Or General LeMay?

[Pollster1]

Does he also object when terrorists use car bombs and mentally retarded teens with bombs strapped around their waists to kill women and children, or does he only object when the fight is unfair to the terrorists he loves?

[TheOldLady]

Idiot. The purpose of war is to kill people, military and civilian, and break things, military and civilian, until the enemy sues for peace or dies.

Isdumb has no heart and no mind, so there is no “winning their hearts and minds.”

The mincing butt pirate in the white hut is killing people and breaking things in our own military forces abroad with his insane ROEs, and in our own civilian population here at home with his economy-killing business practices and his virulently anti-Christian erosion of the first and other amendments.

What’s wrong with this picture? Somebody? Anybody?

[bert]

The problem with killing Taliban with drones is the yield.

Not nearly enough men and none of the complicit women and children are killed.

[Pecos]

Glass would be an even thinner layer.

[Eagles6]

Great minds and all that...
