    Isnt it amazing how "war is hell" is the standard cop out from pro-war people regarding anything from violations of human rights to violating national sovereignty?

    Show me a war, any war (legitimate or illegitimate) that hasn't resulted in civilian casualties? Is the death of a civilian only a human rights violation when it happens in an illegitimate conflict? You might disagree with the war but the fact remains, the US and other allied forces are using tactics designed to minimise civilian casualties whilst still achieving their given task.

    Well we can talk about a war that was caused cos 3000 ppl got murdered which then led to the death of 200 000+ other dead people?
    Would be off-topic I guess so I will go back to WoT.
