What’s wrong with using old school bombs if they do the job?

How does one expect to break their will to wage war by blowing up a few trucks that their sponsors can easily replace? They’ll just report back to the depot for a new truck and carry on.

Blow ‘em up driver and all and anyone who’s near them at the time.

Agreed.

We drop leaflets and the Russians launch Cruise Missiles. Despite our military’s capabilities, the US would be slaughtered by Russia under Barry’s ROE.

Very sad and embarrassing.

Why can't the Air Force just do a good old fashioned Highway of Death?

Read the crapload from ‘Col. Warren” at the end of the article. The Pentagon needs some powerful disinfectant.

The attacking AH-64's and A-10's at the "Highway of Death" loitered and waited, giving the drivers and occupants plenty of time to run away. Most did. The press used some grisly images to make it seem much worse that it was.

George H.W. Bush was affected by the images and the moniker. Thus, the war was quickly called.

It's exactly the difference one would expect between the Alpha Male Putin and the Beta Boy Obammy.
If it wasn't for the weakling, cowardly, spineless GOPe RINOs there would be no one's ass that Obozo could kick.
