Killing the infidel is not “target civilians” in their definition.
This is one thing, in all aspects of the enemies’ speech, that we must watch out for -
they use the same words as we do, but they mean different things to them.
That is the problem so few take the time to really understand the enemy. In the movie Patton. There was a line “Rommel.... I read your book”
People don’t know the enemy.
