Obama's army: Killing ISIS scum- bad.. Killing unarmed ranchers- good..

[oh8eleven]

Am I glad this pencil-neck, MF wasn't around during WWII ... we'd all be speaking Japanese or German.
He's the type that gets other people killed.

[jpsb]

Fire that general!

[faithhopecharity]

Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Tokyo, Hamburg, Belgrade...

tough, yes.

worked? yes.

this general guy needs to go back to Officer Training School

[Gene Eric]

Trump is correct when he argues that military officials must not publicly describe their desires and intentions.

[notdownwidems]

MacFarland claimed the anti-ISIS campaign is making progress in both Iraq and Syria, and that the jihadists had lost about 40% of the territory they had held.

Yes, as a result of the Russians' 'carpet bombing'!

[Lurkinanloomin]

That’s why we haven’t won a war since 1945....when we did carpet bomb.

Roberta Flack’s “Killing Me Softly” was just a song,
not a blueprint for kinder, gentler warfare.

[Pollster1]

Killing terrorist thugs is against Obama's values, but it's an American tradition and a good one!

The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood.

The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

Tokyo, May 1945 (one of several similar attacks):

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Values are a funny thing. When you are living in luxury and in a safe little cocoon, you have a lot of values. When you are fighting for your survival, values go out the window. This general doesn’t realize that we are fighting for our survival, just like our politicians don’t realize that we are fighting for our survival when then arrogantly say that controlling our borders is against our values.

[Timocrat]

Indiscriminate bombing, where we don't care if we're killing innocents or combatants, is just inconsistent with our values."

So Tokyo, Hiroshima, Nagasaki in 1945, Dresden in 1944/45, Berlin 1944/45, Hanoi in 1972 were inconsistent with our values ?

[TexasFreeper2009]

So basically current panzy ass general says to WW2 generals, you guys are mean! and your actions during the WW2 didn’t display our American values!

lol

[Night Hides Not]

I checked this guy out: he's responsible for the "Sunni Awakening" in Ramadi. That really worked out well, didn't it?

Given the choice, I'll take Sam Damon (Jay Garner) over Courtney Massengale every time. LTG MacFarland is treading very closely to Court's side of the fence.

US general says carpet bombing against 'our values'

The 0bamunist Butt Kisser is just echoing his master's words - "that's not who we are". We need to get a REAL Commander in Chief to restore the military!

[henkster]

Carpet bombing wins wars, general.

[Psalm 144]

But shielding pedophilic rape of children by ‘allies’ is hunky dory.

[hawkaw]

Actually Cruz was not talking about carpet bombing like what happened in the 1940s. I think it was poor choice of words by Cruz’s team and it got him into trouble.

[rlmorel]

Carpet bombing IS against our values. But I will be the first to say that, when the situation warrants it, it won’t be.

Because it is a certainty that there do exist circumstances that will warrant it.

[TalBlack]

You abandon the moral high ground when you refuse to fight for your own Culture against savages.

[Mr. Mojo]

We carpet bombed both the retreating Iraqi army in Gulf War 1 in ‘91 and the Taliban in Afghanistan in late ‘01. And those are just two recent historical examples. Is McFarland saying that those actions were “inconsistent with our values?” I can only imagine what this perfumed prince thinks of what we did to Japan 70+ years ago.
