You are right of coarse. We should let them keep killing a hundred here, a thousand here while doing nothing. We wouldn't dare stoop to that level to win a WAR. Good thing people like you were not in charge during WWII. We wiped out whole cities in order to break the will of the enemy to fight. Those cities provided the personnel/materials/labor to wage war. We should have waited for the tanks to get to the front lines before destroying them. If we blew up the factory we could kill an innocent person. That makes a lot of sense. These cities and countries are providing the material to wage war. Those materials are people.

That's a valid point I wish more people would make. If you want to convince the "Arab street" to denounce terrorism, light up the Arab street. If they think we're going to quit bombing them when the terrorists stop killing people, maybe they'll convince the terrorists to stop killing people.

There are many who advocate just that. Many southerans view Sherman as a war crimnal (which he was by todays standards) for the tatics he used.

The horrible things is this can turn us into the type of people we are fighting.
