Another criticism on Cruz appears to be reaction to his statement that he would “carpet bomb” ISIL. US military are pointing out that ISIL is embedded in cities like Mosul and Rakka, basically holding the civilians hostage. That is why retaking Ramadi was such a hard fight. Americans do not carpet bomb large concentrations of civilians who are hostage to someone else’s war.

True. He is the worst thing to happen to the Republican party ever. Cruz is to immature to be President.

We didn’t worry about German or Japanese civilians between 1941 and 1945, as I recall.

Tell that to the civilians of Germany and Japan ... Dresden, Berlin, Tokyo - and, of course, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. War is Hell, and the more intense you make the fires, the sooner it comes to an end.
