Isn't that the job of people who have been trained to make those decisions?

Yes. I'm just trying to understand. Is that wrong?

I think his (and my) concern is that the left and the media have made combat more dangerous my not using our superior firepower for fear of "civilian" casualties. This reduces the clear advantages of a technologically advanced civilization. Jenin is, in my opinion, a very good example of this squeamishness--many young men were killed because Israel was overly concerned with the possibility of killing "noncombatants".
