My only point is that hardly anyone fights with proper decorum nowadays, what's with the "pussy" argument? The extremists are low-down dirty motherfuckers and I would never defend them, but you can hardly proclaim yourselves as the knights templar of awesomeness when you're winning the war on mostly technological fronts. Air, naval and ground superiority in every sense fighting against some crazed Mosleems with AK's and improvised explosives. So yes, ok Deez maybe a decade ago you had to put yourself in some hairy position to call in your big guns, but nowadays I don't think a war has ever been easier won on the technology front- such a huge difference.

Todays oxymoron: Precision Airstrike
What's oxymoronic about that?
Today's moron: m3th.
Airstrike are devastating. Whats so fucing precise about a devastating weapon? It's just more retarded terminology like negative patient output and shock and awe.
Yeah, love you too.
Precision is just an adjective epithet describing the technology and the concept of the ballistic, don't get all semantic-argument on me... boring. I don't really see how "shock and awe" is retarded terminology, it does what it says on the tin. Sure an air-delivered missile is 'devastating' but the point of precision airstrikes is that the devastation is focused and aimed for maximum effectivity. I don't really see how it's oxymoronic. It's hardly saying 'precision carpet bombing'...
I tried to love you but this strange outburst of bullshit confounds my passion.

who said nuke? we would just flatten the fucking place, then clear it out. but oh no, we have rules. you see, there is a HUGE difference.
No one explicitly said "nuke", I said you were being vague... jeesh. You have rules and there's a huge difference? They have religious rules and codes too, as amoral as they may seem to us- I'm sure they have all the spiritual and perverse moral justification they need before they blow themselves into hundreds of tiny pieces for those 100 50-year old virgins in the sky or whatever fetish they look forward to in the afterlife. I really don't know what to think of what you're saying... is it better to pulverize a country in a week or remain there for several years doing prolonged damage to the infrastructure and people? Could be argued either way, they're both messy but necessary I guess.
