re: #116 Van Helsing

I’m not seeing carpet bombing being tolerated anymore. I would have recommended it for Fallujah and Sadr City, but I’m pretty sure at that point the US really would have been as hated as some think we were.

Carpet bombing Sadr City and Fallujah wouldn’t have solved the Iraqi insurgency. It would have made it worse. Believe me, I was a SAC pilot. I studied war, intensely. I had a lot of free time while standing alert and a fairly good library. I fully understand the limitations of strategic warfare on insurgencies.
