You are correct, one should never be happy about children dying or war, ever.

But if war it is, children will die and get hurt and displaced and lose parents.

That is what war is. Breaking things and killing people.

So, war should be entered into with great throught, prayer, and questions.

But when the flag goes up, stuff is GOING to get broken. And people killed.

I don't believe this war is a just war. Regan retaliated for Lockerbie. Slap for slap, now it should be over.

But the guy in the White House didn't ask me, and we're off to war again. We need to fight it like a war. That is, we need to break lots of stuff, and kill people. Including children (but not targeting children).

“My country right or wrong.” Absurd rationalizations such as this resulted in people getting executed at Nuremberg.

Reagan retaliated for German nightclub bombing that killed US serviceman

He did not retaliate for Lockerbie/PanAm 103. I believe Bush 41 had just won the US presidency a month before Lockerbie ... so it happened (conveniently) as the watch was changing

As far as I know, NO ONE ever retaliated for Lockerbie
Strange, that

As if the uS accepted the deaths of all those people over guilt for the USS Vincennes downing the Iranian Airbus 4 months earlier...

oh wait, that would make Iranian mullahs a co-conspirator player, wouldn’t it? We don’t want to deal with that...after all, the Iranian moderates are just waiting to come into power...so our experts have been saying since 1975
