FDR bombed MILLIONS of civilians in defense of America. So did Truman. And LBJ.

Unfortunately, terrorists use civilian populations to shield themselves.

Using human shields was invented about 5,000 years ago. When the US bombed millions of civilians in WWII, it was largely unavoidable as bomb guidance was very crude, commonly referred to as gravity....if you wanted to hit a special target and you really didnt want to miss, you just bombed everything in the area and hoped you hit something important.

You deal with them by getting the hell out of their countries and minding your own business.

So, while terrorists kill other Muslims more often than anybody else, we can fight them by joining them in their indiscriminate bombing campaigns. Nice job Teddy


In Response To Paris, Ted Cruz Calls For Airstrikes With More 'Tolerance For Civilian Casualties' | ThinkProgress
"Think Progress" is a radical Leftist site. Screw them!

Ted Cruz did not say "kill more civilians."

We should step up our strikes, and I'm for going over there and using "nukes" and totally obliterating them. Wipe out Islam once and for all. Then kick their asses out of the USA and burn down their damn Mosques!

Then, as Trump says, we should take their oil. We should leave them NOTHING. We should leave Muslim lands as barren wastelands. That is what they deserve.

You are hopelessly naive and evidently have pretty limited exposure to most of the world.

They attack us because we are a Western Nation, not because of anything we have done to them. They hate the West! You Leftists only want to make excuses, but you miss the big picture. Islamists want to dominate the World.That's why they attack us.

What did the European countries do to them prior to the Crusades? Nothing! The Muslims are conquerors! That's why they attack. The went into Europe, slaughtering and conquering and taking territory. Until the Crusades drove them back. Now, they have risen again, to do the same.

It's not about what we did to them. It's about who they are.

You are utterly clueless. Our very existence is a deadly offense to them. They will not rest until the whole world is Islamic.

Your post makes me want to vomit. It saddens me that so many people like you exist in this country.

You are exactly what you claim to despise.
