seems to me the only military solution would be to set an example and level the city without warning, killing everthing down to the last roach

Translation: "killing everythng including the last baby." Don't be afraid to cCall a spade a spade if that is what you what you mean. Is it?

I would never advocate the intentional killing of babies, I'm pro-life and I love dogs too. I'm trying to say that the war is against an entire culture, and the rules of war have changed, a nation can no longer tit for tat, "Bomb Berlin" or rock Hiroshima. To make matters worse, there is no official army to defeat, and the hearts and minds they are trying to win seem be shriveled and twisted, judging from what tidbits of info I get fed from the media. However, I'm sure it would appear differently when meeting face to face since one cant see into a black heart.

unfortunately the record of recent history (WWII+) reveals much success through impersonal steady wholesale destruction,( the enemy gets weary and loses hope) surgical hand to hand combat and W.H.&W has a bad success record ( the enemy can see results, and keeps up hope for success, until the USA gets weary and quits )

politically , I think , to win win a war in todays world, the nation would have to just spell out its own rules like, "This is what happens" ( total destruction of you and the city you control) and if babies get killed in the process it is your fault because you hid behind them"

If WWII was fought with the rules of war today, no doubt the axis would have won
