#1 And in spite of our strict rules of engagement, we still managed to off four civilians a few days ago, and the media is up in arms.

"First, kill all the reporters" - Sherman? Or was it someone form a much earlier time?

#2 I think you're conflating Sherman and Shakespeare. But you do have a point...

#3 To up the bombing would be tantamount to admitting that they are not contained.

Hey "Black Lies matter"

#5 For a 'True' Muslim it is a sin to kill another Muslim. Note how often he claims ISIS is not 'real' Islam. He like others have to legitimize their target to stay within the law. Just as Sunni and Shiite treat each other as apostates to justify their killing of each other. Once you understand that perspective, you understand why he only authorizes ones, twos, and fews. Yes, Virginia, at heart he's a Muslim. (and you can throw in his public hatred for those obstructing 'refugee' Muslims and his administration rejection of Christians from the same environment.)

#6 And speaking of Sherman, and anniversaries,

"With seven league boots I bestrode ya
When meting out justice to Georgia,
But surely in Heaven
All torts are forgiven..."
Miss Scarlet storms in from the loggia.
