I guess we ARE waging a sensitive war!

I think those even those Fallujans who were real glad to see us coming wish we'd never come in the first place at this point.

And I don't think we'd deliberately target a hospital or Mosque just for the fun of it. But I don't think, and I don't see how anyone in a situation like this is going to excercise a lot of disgression. In Urban combat, civillians get killed. For Rumsfled to imply anything else is dishonest and repugnant. That's my point. If God is anything at all like serious Christians think he is, there's special part of hell reserved for pople like Rumsfeld who talk shit like that while people are dying.

Maybe it's unavoidable. Maybe you can say we're in no way to blame for the people we kill. That's arguable. War is a dirty business and people get hurt. But step up to the plate and be honest if you think it has to be done. Be a man and shoulder the costs. That's what I hate most about these fuckers. Can you see Patton saying "I don't think a lot of civillians will get killed. Certainly not by us." That smug son of a bitch needs a little twilight zone justice. He needs to wake up as a grunt in retrograde body armour at the front of the line in a Fallujah alleyway. Or better yet , an old Arab man cowering in a basement while bombs go off overhead.
