Maybe if you would provide any kind of proof that,

Shock and Awe killed civilians
Civilians have been targeted time and time again.

Until you can, and do, I will take your comments for what they are, anti-war pacifist drivel.

I read 12 newspapers a day, from all parts of the world.

Not one of them is the Green Bay Press Gazette.

Civillians have not been directly targetted. How dare you. Make your arguments, you are entitled to your opinions. Are civillians affected. Yes, no doubt about that. However, modern warfare is designed to minimize the effect on citizens. You know this. This same war conducted by a democrat would be reported so differently. You are the one who needs to start reading.

I don't like warfare. Sometimes its necessary. I totally respect the rights of people to disagree with their government. But good grief, be honest about it. There would be millions and millions of dead if we targeted civillians. What a load of horse####.

Just so long as they disagree with the same issues you do huh?? By some counts millions have been killed. i find that number inflated myself but how are we too know???just because a Fascist news channel or newspaper claims its a low almost nonexistent number hardly makes it so.

Funny, I don't generally read the Press Gazette either. I assume that from your dig you consider it a "bleeding heart left-wing pacifist rag," though how you would be able to classify it at all, since you don't read it, eludes me.

No doubt you will ignore this study, as it doesn't actually say that the US "targeted" civilians. Apparently more than 600,000 Iraqis "just got in the way." Besides, some of them might actually have been resisting the occupying and invading forces. Gotta secure that oil for America's future, after all. That makes it hunky-dory. Oops, I forgot. This has nothing at all to do with oil. If the middle east had nothing but dates and camels, we still would have invaded. Uh huh.

It is a fact that the United States targeted Al Jazeera offices, killing civilians. It is a fact that civilians have been regularly killed at "check points" for not stopping their cars fast enough to suit the soldiers. That the soldiers felt threatened is moot. A soldier can always justify a kill -- and quite often the kill was, militarily, justifiable. That does not negate the fact that innocent civilians ARE targeted and killed. You choose to close your eyes to that fact. You have my pity, and my contempt.

I dare to speak the truth regardless of how unpopular it may be with any particular audience. That you reject the truth is not my fault.

Apparently you think I'm a democrat. Funny. It's always "Dems Vs Repubs," "Libs vs Conservatives" with some people. I try to align myself with the righteous -- whatever side they might be on. The United States is not righteous in this "non war" against Iraq. Indeed, it is evil. If that offends you, so be it.

IF the civilians are harboring terrorist, then they should lay the Smackdown on their ### the same as the terrorist.

MommaKay, the democrat reference was the fact that the media is very skewed and therefore inaccurate. And based on your previous post, al-jazeera offices, I had failed to think that you and I might have different definitions of civillians.

Seriously? You chose the Lancet study to back up your claims?

How many times has this study been debunked? Try to find something not financed by George Soros as your factual basis for your nonsense.

If terrorists target CBS or Fox News, are they striking a civilian target?

Al-Jazeera is a news agency. Biased in favor of Iraq? Naturally. Biased in favor of Islam? Of course. Nevertheless, a civilian facility.

Response anticipated and met with the reply it deserves.
