Just as in Vietnam where famously it was said 'we had to destroy the village to save it!'......sickening photo and info....no surprise, however. They are not American and they are not lily-white nor Christian, so their lives to the troops and the USG are collectively worth only as much as any pawn in a chess game. [and the USG even has extra pawns up their sleeves] How would Americans react if someone did that to our towns or cities, one at a time?......we'd fight like the Vietnamese did and the Afghanis do. We simply can not put our heads and hearts in other's realities. We are lost in our own mythology and Imperial delusions. The military has been made into crusaders against an invented enemy. Sick stuff....which in the end will destroy America, as it has much of the rest of the World. Sad.
