I've been to war and there's nothing good about it. War is ugly, barbaric, and indifferent to your status (civilian/soldier, rich/poor, etc), and there is no way to change that.

Men, women and children all bleed the same, and in war they all can kill you, so you do what you have to do to survive. However, that NEVER includes purposeful targeting of non-combatants. That is the difference between us and them, and we need to preserve it at all costs.

"War is hell" was true then and is still true today, despite the changes in our technologies I think Sherman would recognize all our problems in Iraq.

Lastly: While this thread is about Radical Islam, I remind us all that fanaticism knows no religious or political boundaries (remember Tim McVeigh?).
MajMike Reviewed by MajMike on . Radical Islam Suicide bomb kills over 100 in Iraq - Yahoo! News So a suicide bomb killed over 100 people in Iraq. I think that if these radical extremists want to kill themselves, maybe they should strap a bomb to their chest and blow themselves up in a field away from innocent civilians. I don't really see the point in the message they are trying to give everybody. I am sickened by the attempted attacks in London and Glasgow and I hope the plotters have a very harsh sentence.
