>>A Special Forces colonel in the Vietnam War said of the town, Ben Tre, "We had to destroy the town in order to save it, encapsulating the entire war in a single statement. The same is true in Iraq today -- Fallujah cannot be "saved" from its mujaheddin unless it is destroyed.<<

Save the town from whom and for whom??? destroy 300,000 lives just like that? Are these soldiers human beings or killing machine?
