Exactly, I'm getting sick of our gentleman's war approach. Carpet bomb the sh!t out of these bastards for a week or two and then send in our guys.

If we carpet bomb them for about two weeks, the 4th ID will be just about ready to join the 3rd ID, 101st and Marines for the surge forward. I dont think thats a bad idea. I wouldnt be surprised if that was the plan. In fact, I hope it is. Nobody said this war had to be over in a week.

You are right!! Time to BUFF the bastards.

I fear that we are not softening up the target areas because we thought that the "leaflet bombing" was going to cause mass surrenders.

MK 82's and 84's cause mass surrenders.

I'm with you. Its a time for ruthlessness.

Theodoe Roosevelt said, "Never punch softly."

If we public opinon won't let us fight a real war, then it's not time to start a war.

I don't think anyone on the receiving end of an attack by Apache's would consider it "gentlemanly".

[Libertina]

Isn't the Gentlemans' Army the one the British LOST to the upstart rogue Americans who hid behind bushes and up in trees to take shots? I keep thinking of this as our wars are fought. (This does not mean I condone torture, but are we being realistic in the way we fight?)
