Silly. Do you want attacks to stop or not? Effing morons.

Attacks on enemies, if they become necessary, should NEVER be “proportionate”. Employing such a measured response simply invites more violence, attacks and death.

“Were Proportionate”

And that’s the problem. Weakness invites aggression.

Perhaps politically scripted to differentiate this ‘proportionate' retaliation from that of Israel actually responding decisively against a recalcitrant, intransigent Muslim foe seeking the utter destruction of Jews from their ancient homeland.

Do not take out the SAM sites because they might be operated by Russian technicians... so uttered McNamara resulting U.S. acft and airman casualties, and a “proportionate number” of crewmen taken prisoner.

That’s treasonous!

Proportionate... There’s the F’n problem. Complete annihilation ends retaliation and further attacks.

In other words, you’re too scared to actually fight back.

What happened to “overwhelming force”. That is an expression I saw disappearing from AFN shortly after Obama was elected…

As usual fighting with both arms (intentionally) tied behind our backs. If you wage an attack do it with full might ...proportionate MEH!

I don’t understand this political obsession with “proportional response”.
If someone commits an act of war on you, engage them until they are defeated.

After Pearl Harbor, were we satisfied we just sinking a few Japanese warships?

"Proportionate response" is a strategy for losers.

If we need people to be in a war zone, we must have them use winning strategies and tactics. Some version of "massive overreaction" is what winners do. We could call that "proportional response" if we want to do misdirection propaganda that makes us look all warm and fuzzy. But we should not be all warm and fuzzy.

Otherwise, we should not have people in a war zone.
