Using cities as shields what a pussy. He's gonna hide behind all the women and children.
He's an ARAB - can we expect anything less?
Precedent set in Vietnam, the only difference was the Viet Cong spread out and hid among the villagers instead of in large urban areas. Communists and other power-mad dictators have absolutely NO moral objection to killing their own civilians, including women and children. That alone is enough to justify wiping them off the face of the earth.
UFB, eh? When Saddam refers to the "mother of all battles" he's is talking about actual mothers. These women and their children ARE his battle plan. Is there any less manly religion than the Islam practiced by many in the Middle East?
