I am still burning about the guy just after September 11, 2001 who had OBL in his sights and didn’t order the hit because ‘he didn’t feel good about it’.

And the fire bombings of Japan stopped that war too along with two big bombs. Civilians and politicians running a war never wins one...Korea and VietNam...then during obama’s handling of Iraq, we’ve just about, or lost it too. Fiddling in Afphaganistan, is a losing war too. The hate us and no matter what the generals and politicans say otherwise...the Afphgans DON’T LIKE US! How many “friendly” shootings from Aghfgans have killed American “trainers”, so far????

Since we’re the only ones playing by the rules, we’re getting our asses kicked everywhere.

No wonder al Queda is invading our embassies - they have nothing to fear.

Now we’re recognizing al Queda rebels in Syria as legitimate?

I was the enemy, I’d be laughing too.........

Those who make war with slavish devotion to the rules are doomed to fail.

I’m disturbed that we’re too chicken to launch nukes

He’s right. It’s a war crime. Charge Obama now!

In WW2, the RAF and USAAF dropped delayed-action bombs along with the regular bombs to kill as many German firemen and rescue workers as possible. Same thing here.

Yeah, I know what it takes to deliver a daisy cutter. It was wishful thinking.

During the Viet Nam war, the viet cong would set off a booby trap, and after rescue personnel came in, another one would be set off. I remember the huge waves of outrage coming from the American media about this tactic. Oh, wait. There wasn't any. Sorry, my bad.

Glad to hear someone is doing their job!

Most of our rules of engagement stink!
