If they were legal combatants, they were legitimate military targets.

I don't think your posts really need to be responded to any more. Surely the lurkers won't forgive your advocating murder.

You really sound as if you are trying to defend the sort of murder that the Waffen SS perpetrated on captured US troops in the 1944 Ardennes Offensive.

You have never been able to post much of anything substantial in response to me as it is, Walt. Most of what I say you intentionally avoid so as to excape addressing it. More recently, you have appeared to be avoiding me all together. So in other words, exactly what do you mean by "any more"?

Shooting a man in self defense is not murder, Walt. Even a person as ignorant of history and ethical philosophy as yourself must concede that much.

No, because, for the most part, our troops were not specifically tasked to and engaging in the criminal acts of looting, theft, arson, and rape the against civilians of France, Belgium, and Germany. Shermans troops were against the civilians of the south, with much of it sanctioned by Sherman himself and other commanders. Hence, your analogy is false.
