If you don’t think that military manufacturing assets (factory workers) are legitimate targets, then I don’t believe we will ever find a converging point in this debate.
Look war is not nice nor neat.. To me war is necessary evil and should be used at a last resort.. Ever since the beginning of time civilians has been have been caught in the middle of war and have been killed by war. That is the fact..
When and where did I say or imply that? In fact, I recognise that the line between civilian and military can be blurred. A bomb factory is a legitimate target. A "baby milk factory" (if in fact it really is one ;'0) is not. What about a computer parts factory? Civilian or military? Or both? How about a 10 year old child (who happens to be a student at the local Academy for Aspiring Suicide Bombers)?
