Carpet bombing is counter-productive and a waste of resources. Especially since we’re not at war with a Nation-state.

Not having inane ROE however, does a world of difference.

Ever heard and felt it? It’s not just the sound, it’s how the air pressure affects you. It is very demoralizing to those under bombardment.

Couldn't the rules of engagement in WWII be summed up in the word "win," the rest being up to the generals/admirals?

“Carpet bombing is counter-productive and a waste of resources.”

Like hell it’s counterproductive. Sounds like you may have never seen what B-52s with dumb bombs can do. And it does an intangible. It sends a message,,, a powerful message.
Put on a dress and swish around for us.

Depends on your strategic goals.

Would carpet bombing be good if the enemy was all massed in one spot?
