All legalities aside and without caveat or qualification, it would not hurt my feelings at all if the SEALs were strictly following orders and shot the dirt-bag on sight — and anyone stupid enough to stand in the way or try to stop them — without meeting deadly force to justify it.
Why? Because dropping a couple of 500lb bombs would have been perfectly acceptable — even with collateral damage.
We definitely dropped some ordinance tonnage, it was just in 200lbs (+/-) two legged packages. So anyone who thinks the SEALs were out of control gun-slingers (I’m talking to any offended lib-tards; no-one here on FR yet), your morals are royally screwed-up, possibly beyond all repair.
Beyond all that, I want our SOC operators to be universally feared in the sense that, if you wage war against us in *any* sense of the phrase, our warriors may be unleashed to do what we have trained them to do in the deadliest fashion possible and with absolutely zero mercy for those who refuse to instantly, fully and completely surrender.
My view is that, once someone declares war against us (which Al-Q, Talis, most all militant islamic haji’s have done over & over in both spoken & written word), then they agree to have war waged against them — which means we get to do our level-best to *kill* them and anyone helping them whenever we have the opportunity until they say “we surrender” and convince us they *mean* it.
I’m rambling... I realize all the above sentiments aren’t very politically correct Guess that makes me a meanie. So be it.
