Maybe we should have gone after them with flame throwers and killed them by burning them alive like WWII, eh?

THEY WERE THE ENEMY.

And we killed them.

That is not a war crime. Ron Paul is a whack job.

Well, ostensibly, the flame-throwers were to burn all the oxygen in the caves.

The criticism at the time was that our troops should have dismounted, to give the Iraqis a fair chance to kill them I suppose. Quite a recomendation for Commander in Chief. If suffocation is disallowed, I suppose we abandon all anti-submarine efforts.
