How ruthless is our enemy?

| September 22, 2009

Look, I agree with the recent decision to limit the ROE to try to curtail civilian casulties.  I suspect it will end up being misapplied, as it was recently when guys in a tree line couldn’t be engaged, but I understand the inherent need to limit non-combatant deaths.

Unfortunately our enemy has no such ROE, nor compunction about killing young children.  From Soldiers Angels Germany comes this video which makes this point crystal clear:

Meanwhile, some folks think we should just abandon the people of Afghanistan to their own devices. Sure, you guys be the one to tell this little boy that we are leaving him to deal with these savages on his own.

Why is this reminiscent of Vietnam? Where was Bill “THE ASSASIAN” Perry & his Blue Falcons when this kid needed help? I’ll risk being asked not to come back and call them *pUsSiEs*
