attacking, capturing or destroying related civilian property has always been part of the war process

Now let me get this straight. Are you telling me that in, say, Viet Nam, if a Viet Namese killed an American, that the Americans would go to his parent's house and destroy it?

Systematically, dispassionately, under color of law, for over twenty years?

Sorry, I don't believe you. I believe this could happen in the heat of war, isolated incidences, by angry men, but not acting under full authority of the legal system.
