It’s not our military’s mission to save souls. Leave it to the missionaries.
I didn't say it was. What I object to is the armchair commandos who believe that wiping out an entire country is a cool thing to do, and that, because of the location and circumstances of their birth, entire people groups can be justifiably wiped out.
I'm not even arguing that we should still be in Afghanistan, and am definitely horrified by the ROE in place now.
I just thought that the desire for the wholesale slaughter of large groups of people living with brutality and tyranny should be countered by a little Biblical reality.
