A suicide bomber detonated his sacrements to Allah in a market in Tuz Khormato Iraq. 150 were wounded (PBUT). Aren't we glad the freedom fighters praised by Michael Moore and others are out there making Iraq safe for Sharia law? I hear a lot of calls for U.S. troops to pull out of Iraq... I hear a lot of calls for Prs. Bush to be impeached. Where are the voices calling for the "freedom fighters" to quit targeting civilians and their leaders standing facing penalties for their crimes? I guess we can look on the bright side, those 150 don't have to worry about what the terrorist will do next.

I think back to how we handled Germany and Japan during WWII. I was watching a program on the History Channel the other day on how we destroyed whole cities in one fell swope. During WWII we affectively used air and ground forces to not only defeat the military forces but also the civilian population. After WWII, we had not one account of an uprising, when we occupied Germany and Japan. The two countries were so demoralized that they had no will to fight. Then it got me thinking about the Iraq war we are fighting right now. We easily defeated the Iraqi army, it was no contest. The moment we put the troops on the ground the Iraqi army had already lost. The only problem was that we didn't target civilian population centers. We didn't demoralize the citizens of Iraq, yet we still decided to occupy their country. The strategy was fine if we weren't going to occupy the country. So this led to the glorified "freedom fighters". Terrorism has always been the so called tool of the freedom fighters. Take for instance the IRA. The IRA fought a terrorist war against the British occupation of Ireland for decades. Obviously it worked. Britian got tired of losing British soldiers in Ireland, so they gave up. As long as we are in their country, and the people have a will to fight there will always be freedom fighters. We have 2 choices: we can either leave or we can take the war to the Iraqis' themselves and make them pay and demoralize them. We use a sledgehammer until we turn the Sunni triangle into a Sunni circle. This would be quite easy, we pick out cities that is a heavy stronghold of the terrorist, and then just simply depopulate the city. I will let you figure out what I am talking about there. We keep doing this until 2 things happen: there are no Iraqi's left willing to fight or there are no Iraqi's.

Yeah, it's ironic that with such a relatively small about of deaths and wounded in this war, this is the "Bad" war. In WWII a whole mile was bombed to take out 1 factory... but that was the "good" war. People with no sense of history are trying to make arguments that don't make sense.

Are you seriously suggesting that the problems we see now are caused because we need to kill more civilians with our bombers and gunships? And are you really suggesting that we should start now, kill them all and then we're sure of getting the terrorists? Seriously. We left a power vacuum and now we're reaping the benefit. Iraq is the scene of a number of proxy wars for power. And it's our fault.

How perfectly you have answered the points I made. Oh. Wait. You've just made a broad and irrelevant statement to offset the fact that you didn't have a response. Sorry.

Everyone condemns it. Everyone who isn't a raving fanatic anyway. It's considered pretty certain that anyone thinks blowing up a market full of innocent people is bad. And we already want the killers caught. We can want more than one wrong-doer brought to task at a time.

Everyone condemns it, but who do you consider responsible for it?

The situation was created by Hussein for not complying with the Ceasefire of Safwan 1991.

The people who plan and carry out these attacks are responsible for it. They may be backed by Iran, or Syria, or any number of Islamic terror groups. And they all take their share of the blame, but the men who pull the trigger are ultimately responsible. That doesn't abdicate us of the responsibility for creating the situation that has led to this point, but trying to combine the two things, or demand that one is more condemned than the other is pointless.

I wonder why they think the terrorists, Iran and Syria will stop just because we do?

True! Since when did reneging on a promise mean something honorable?
