It is a known tactic of terrorists to shield themselves with civilians, especially women and children, while they shoot at Americans in populated areas. It is nearly impossible to return fire in an ambush without bystanders getting hit. That’s why terrorists do it.
The instinct in an ambush is to return fire as quickly as possible and kill the SOBs without getting killed first. Returning fire is already a disadvantage as targets are not well identified.
If I were a soldier in this conflict I’d already be in jail for a very long time.
You are absolutely right. Arabs use women, children and the elderly as shields to protect their sorry butts. I’ve read, fighting these people are like hitting the pillsbury dough boy, they are all air and little fight, unless they use these innocents and helpless to protect themselves, then they run to the leftists media and cry that these poor innocents were MURDERED by the awful American military. These terrorists and the leftist give me a pain in the arse. The media for the most part are no more brave than the terrorists who use innocents. They’re a bunch of wimps, girly boys.
