I wouldnt worry about it George. It will never fly. Such a lovely idea for civilians not to get hurt but heck this is WAR! That is part of war. Especially when the terrorists are strapping bombs on women and children so they can get close to soldiers and blow them to kingdom come. If the Military provides good training to their soldiers then they can cover that section of treating civilians nice there. As it stands now, I think all our soldiers are treating the civilians of the countries they are fighting in nicely. I see pics all the time of soldiers both Canadian and American helping citizens, holding children and playing with the kids. I think our countries can be proud of the high caliber of soldiers we have fighting this war.

civilians always get killed in wars, some times by accident, sometimes on purpose. Remember hiroshima? dressden, warsaw, it happens. How can it be avoided, easy WIN and write history. As far as I'm concerned the wars should both be over, we took their names kicked their butts, so why did we stick around? Sounds like empire building to me, ask the british and french how thjat worked for them.and before you jump my bones, got a grandkid on his third tour.Yep Old Cutis LeMay had a good point, bomb em back into the stone age.Or send all of them up to allah, the ones he likes he'll surely send back.
