It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell. William T. Sherman.
How many more people have died, than would have if the enemy were eliminated? How many times has the US pulled back and allowed “refugees” to escape, only to find that the enemy has flown leaving only civilians behind? The news report told of the carnage of innocent civilians as Russian refused a “cease fire” as the civilians get time to escape. When at war with a Mooslum on YEE HAWD, there are no civilians. There are only soldier breeders and soldiers in training. We either MUST decouple from this area, or fight a war of mass destruction instead of attrition. They win if we spend $1,000,000 to kill one terrorist, and they spend $.25.
Daddy used to say, “WAR IS HELL!” He was a WWII combat
veteran of N. Africa, Italy and Germany. Flashbacks all
his life after the war.
