This will get our TROOPS killed.

If we had such restrictions in WWII we'd all be bowing to our Japaneese conquerors and/or speaking German.

What a crock. Kill 'em all and let Allah decide.

Now, Now Tyme that wouldn't be right, there are rules of engagement and they must be followed at all times, Remember we are a Peaceful Nation and we can't break the rules even if it means some of our boys don't come home. His legacy depends on it.

You must have. Andrew it spoke of the troops being ordered to never engage if any civilian lives may be in danger. In some instances and it listed one in particular where known terrorists were not fired on from Air backup putting the ground troops in great danger. The Marines were pretty fired up about it but according to the helicopter pilot he was following direct orders to not fire. Now it seems these insurgents know this and are actually using this as a weapon against our troops.
