I am for killing ALL of our enemies. I am not an isolationist. I do not want to go to war unless it is absolutely necessary and our National Interests are best served doing so. When we go to war... we need to fight like we did in WW II. Total destruction of our enemies. I no longer believe or trust our federal government. I have caught them lying time after time... and that is why I want nothing to do with their manufactured new world order wars.

“When we go to war... we need to fight like we did in WW II.”

I agree with you, however, does this mean that the United States should have demanded the unconditional surrender of France during the Quasi War? Would we now be occupying Canada and Great Britian after fighting the War of 1812? Of course, General Sherman gave the rebels what they deserved under this premise. I suppose he should have burned more Southern cities to be true to WWII?. Would demanding Spain’s unconditional surrender mean that we occupy Madrid? And should we have tolerated another 2-3 million or so dead in order to show the Kaiser who’s boss and occupy Berlin? And on and on....

My only point is that we should recognize that WWII-style wars and victories are the exception in both US and World history.
