New Direction For The War On Terror

[silverback]

It is a different world, from WWII, whey you win a war, not by dieing for your country, but by making the other poor bastard die for his. Now " as I have been told by friends, who have children in combat" that our troops must be under fire before they can defend themselves. They cannot start a fire-fight.This is fighting with one hand tied behind your back.
As for me the only good Muslim is a dead one, they started attacking the US in the 60, with the shooting of Bobby Kennedy and it just got worst. Wake up or they will over run the world, just like the Nazis tried.

Heck, in most REAL fights, the one who lands the first solid hit, wins. Any tactician will tell you that the psychology of landing the first blow is invaluable. Why the USA would set a policy to allow this psychological advantage to the foe is beyond me.

Our "policy" has been that way for decades In every conflict, same BS

You're dead on about the tactical advantage of a fight.

But policy is set by poli-ticians People that don't fight for a living. Most of whom (not all) have either never been in a real conflict, don't remember what it was like to be in a life threatening situation, have "people" to defend them from life threatening sutuations, or have been so politicized as to no longer care.

We've always been a nation of "defenders" and those that do not want to be or appear to be the aggressors, will support the wait until you're shot at group's tactics.

I don't agree with or necessarily want to be a nation of aggressors. I'd rather invest the time, money and manpower in bolstering our internal security and external intelligence gathering.

That said, if we're going to enter the fray, then I support going in, doing what has to be done to restore order, democracy or WTF ever it is we've set out to do, and getting the hell out!!

No hanging around, no baby sitting and no hand holding!!! Feck humanitarian missions! (don't take that the wrong way). Save those that need saving, help those that deserve help, libre de oppressor, then KILL THE ENEMY!!! and go home!

Mission accomplished, go have a beer and a burger

And taking your "first blow" scenario in a street encounter, most of the time, landing the first blow, will land you in jail

Tac-tics and poli-tics are generally speaking, mutually exclusive


I'll stick to tactics and keep a good lawyer on speed dial

I can just see Iraq full of empty beer cans and shotgun shells!
