Isn't that why the bombs were dropped on Japan; to stop the war and the massive loss of life that would ensue on both sides if the Americans had attempted the invasion of the Home Islands ? So how many were killed in the bombings ? And how many would you estimate would die ( INCLUDING so-called innocent civilians), if the invasions had gone ahead ? Certainly my mentality is shared by Daesh and the only way you will beat them is by being as violent if not more so than they are............I think a few of the Viet Nam vets may agree with that. If you are going to fight a war, don't put your own military in handcuffs. They are gonna get the shit kicked out of them. Let them take the gloves off and fight properly. If your enemy recognises no rules to war, then fight by his rules, not those of the U.N.....................then make up a few more of your own rules as you go. So to beat Daesh one must become Daesh? After beating Daesh, what makes you so sure people will be able to reconnect with their humanity? You mean the way none of the men who bombed Dresden, Nagasaki, Tokyo, Hamburg, and Hiroshima never slept well afterwards? And the way they spent the rest of their lives engaged in arson? Of the remarkable prevalence of rape in Moscow after the Red Army returned from Germany? Nah; normal men write that off like they do every sin under the sun.
