re: #386 LudwigVanQuixote

Katusha rockets and suicide bombers don’t make distinctions either.

And the US didn’t make those distinctions when we sent thousands of B-17’s over Germany.

There is no clean way to fight a war. Civilians will be killed. A civilized army tries not to hit them - but if it wants to win, it does not let that dictate policy either.

The difference between the katusha and suicide bombers vs. the bombing of Germany was that the US ended a war with their actions and the Arabs are provoking one. The difference is that the Germans declared war first just like the Arabs did.

Now you are defending not making distinctions. I thought your ability to make distinctions was what separates you from the Harpy. Which is it?
