#1 I'm glad to see that nowhere do any of the military people mention how the use of human shields prevents our troops from firing.

When civilians learn to begin killing the Taleban the instant they show up in town, that's when they'll no longer have to worry about being used as human shields. Our soldiers should have standing orders to fire through any human shields. Those who would use civilians in such a ruthless fashion will only go on to kill many more of the same if they are allowed to live.

The Afghani people must learn, for once and all, that the only sure way of surviving this war is by killing the Taleban whenever they show their faces.

#3 Dog bites man. Stingrays' stingers are dangerous. Never assume a firearm is unloaded.

Using civies as human shields is SOP for the Taliban-Wahhabi-Deobandi-Taqfiri-Jihadi crowd. Nothingnew here kids, please walk along, let's keep moving.
