Hmmm, isn't that what they said we were doing with the waterboarding? Yes, I think they torture prisoners, but I think that is ok. I don't believe in "rules of engagement". Once you commit to killing the other side, there should only be one rule. Rules of engagement are something made up by the more "civil" people, you know the ones who don't have to risk their rear ends on the front lines. If I'm going to get shot at and rish being captured and tortured, then I think I should pretty much be allowed to implement a scortched earth policy. If we had done that in Vietnam and in this skirmish, they would have been over a long time ago.

I don't like war, and I dislike prolonging it even more. I think we should have nuked them on 9/12 and then gone about our business. Do I get your vote for president?
