I agree. It is the "Powell Doctrine", which I am in favor of with modification. Instead of overwhelming force as the mainstay I believe the force should be a crushing, obliterating, no barriers hell storm of fire and destruction. No distinction should be made between civilian and military structures. This type of response will infuriate the world, to be sure, but it would also serve to make the savages tread very lightly in our presence, knowing that even as much as a single and relatively inconsequential act of terror would bring the very heavens down upon them.
The world seems able to be infuriated with our without cause. Hardly a reason to allow that to determine how many lives we sacrifice against a truly evil enemy. I prefer the ancient simplistic approach. As many of them and as few of ours.
