The decision to bomb the tankers based largely on a single human
intelligence source appears to violate the spirit of a tactical directive aimed at reducing civilian casualties that was recently issued by U.S. Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, the new commander of the NATO mission in Afghanistan. The directive states that NATO forces cannot bomb residential buildings based on a sole source of information and that troops must establish a "pattern of life" to ensure that no civilians are in the target area. Although the directive does not apply to airstrikes in the open, NATO officials said it is McChrystal's intent for those standards to apply to all uses of air power, except when troops are in imminent danger. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32711932...shington_post/ Questions: Should the Americans who approved this mission be in trouble? True or false: The commander on the ground requested AS so he should get it no questions asked. Nobody denies that several Taliban were killed. Was this mission therefore a "success"? True or false: this is all Obama's fault. True of false: you 'think' you know as much about the military as any soldier whose politics you happen to disagree with. LoL. True or false: GEN McChrystal has it all wrong. We should just bomb the snot out of them. Your a ninny, 2pid. Your also a imbecile. LoL. |
