“..if there’s any doubt at all that the enemy is firing from a house or building where there might be women and children, that we’ll just back off,”
Will that same strategy be employed as an answer to domestic terrorism?
No. The government does not bother to extend this courtesy to American citizens NOT ENGAGED IN TERRORISM, but under seige in their homes, even with children present. Recall Ruby Ridge and Waco?
The press has more sympathy for foreign terrorists (and the innocent civilians who serve tea and cookies to those “using them as human shields” - after joining them in 5x daily prayer and washing them) than innocent Americans anyway. The government has apparently accepted the same policy.
Of course not....look how Waco turned out.
