I'm really not sure that I agree with kidnapping and killing civilians. I was in the Army, and I served in combat, and I personally see a difference between killing combatants and deliberately targeting civilian non-combatants. Personally I find the terrorists to be cowardly brutal animals with no honor.
But, hey. Thats just my opnion.

Good post!
There is a huge difference between civilians getting caught in a firefight, but targeting civilians intentionally is another matter all together. It doesn't make sense - it's not gonna change the thoughts of the local Iraqis who just want this to end, or the policy of the US. And bombing their own pipeline does nothing to help their cause and only damges Iraq further.
