The rules of engagement, as you point out, have been used to the great harm of our troops. On reflection they are additional proof that our leaders, both Republican and Democrat, have despised our troops. To permit such an egregious betrayal of a soldier’s right to defend himself to continue, beyond say a very brief “cease fire” agreed to by both sides in a conflict, is to give an enemy license to kill your troops.
That is betrayal.
