If you will study the history of war, as I have, you will learn that through out the history of war, civilians have been targets. It is the civilians that make the very uniforms that the military wears, it is the civilians that produce the weapons of war that are used by the military, it is the civilians that produce the fuel and food, it is civilians that replace those that have fallen on the field of battle.

As I've indicated elsewhere, I'm aware of this. What shocks me to no end is when people who support these tactics against others get angry.. shocked.. horrified even.. when someone gets it into their heads to do the same to them.
Its like denying some basic law of physics. If you do shit, shit will happen to you. Maybe belief in cause and effect has become anti-american.. lol.
As for the Macarthur thing, gimme a few to look it up. If I remember correctly he was not even consulted on the decision to bomb.. which is rather telling.
