I agree 1,000% with you. I'm not suggesting we firebomb civi populations like we did in WWII. But the civillian population of the enemy is strangely insulated from "GWOT", at least officially. God forbid we actually decide to WIN a war every now and then, though. But...topic for another thread I suppose.
