#1 It is sad when children are caught in the middle of war. That said. Both the Tailban and AQ cause far more deaths amongst civilians than the U.S. & allies. The Taliban and AQ use children and civilians as shields. Islamists often use children and women for suicide bombers in the name of islam. Children are filled full of hatred in the mosques. Komeini used children to clear mine fields during the Iraq-Iran war. Qadaffy didn't mind killing children in the bombing of Pan Am 103. The 911 terrorists did not mind killing as many innocent people as they could. Women are stoned to death for what are deemed offenses against islam. Prostesters against regimes in islamic countries are often hung for dissent. It seems there is no outcry by islamics regarding their own intentional killings. When children are killed by accident in a combat situation, there is huge outcry against the West. Perhaps it is the large payments we make to the survivors of the unintentional victims that brings the large outcry. One certainly doesn't hear this outcry when the killings are muslim on muslim. So I say STFU already.
