Ted Re..What I said is that the military in general doesn't usually show a great deal of concern for civilians. I think last week was an extreme example of that supposition, but then again, the perpetrators were extremist. That doesn't mean that the military is always unconcerned about civilians. <<<<<<<<<<<<< Have you ever considered that comparing the US military or any military to those extremist thugs is reprehensible. I honestly don't know of any military where they used civilian aircraft loaded with civilians to bomb another country; much less accusing the US military of treating civilians like that.

You both agree that war is a b*tch and that civilians get killed. What I said is that the military in general doesn't usually show a great deal of concern for civilians. I think last week was an extreme example of that supposition I think our military now does show a great deal of concern for civilians, but not so much concern as to make it impotent if the possibility of any civilian deaths occurs. I don't think of last weeks attacks as a military operation, or of the murderous hijackers as soldiers. I know they probably had a different opinion. Tim
