""Sox-in warfare mistakes happen,I thought you were talking about DELIBERATE targeting of civilians,which we no longer do."
Mr. Ed, Isn't that sort of like saying, "Yes, but I didn't beat my wife today!"?"
No, it isn't anything like that.
"War has alway been about destroying populations."
War has been about women, religion, control, money, resources, but it has also been about defending freedom, eliminating tyrany, stopping those who do evil, protecting one's families and a host of other noble reasons. Those who suggest that war should never happen lack the insight of history. War is never preferred, tho it is often required.
