"...That second consideration applies if and only if your [opposition force] gives a damn about living through an engagement or saving wounded comrades. Jihadis may not fit that particular bill..."

If they start to see their terrorist buddies with their heads exploding like watermelons, they might get the notion that continued fighting with vastly superior U.S. soldiers is dangerous to their health.
