Inaction is the greatest evil. We target the enemy as best we can and strike back intelligently, mercilessly, and completely. You have to break a few eggs to make an omelet.
I suppose you have Scripture to back this up?
This is a thread about a Christian response to the present situation. Do you have anything to contribute to that? There are plenty of other threads to whoop it up for war.
What some are trying to differentiate is the risk of some innocent lives lost, vs. the direct consequence of huge numbers of innocent lives lost.
Our "special forces" coupled with quality intelligence gathering provide us the ability to focus on eliminating those who drive the assault on our nation; we can reasonably wage a war that focuses on the guilty and avoids (with some risk) innocents, and do so in a way compatible with the Bible. The consequences of this are profoundly different than the "nuke the capitals" (deliberately killing millions to retaliate for thousands and punish hundreds) so many are calling for.
