Yet in the Afghanistan war we can apparently murder as many civilians as we want, and continue to 'laud' the war (at least in our government). Don't be hypocrites

"KANDAHAR, Afghanistan - Dozens of civilians, including women and children, have been killed in two foreign air strikes in southern Afghanistan, residents and a local member of parliament said on Friday.

One of the raids by NATO hit houses in the Girishk district of Helmand province on Thursday evening, killing up to 50 civilians, a group of some 20 residents reported to journalists in Kandahar, the main city in the south. "

A US air strike in eastern Afghanistan on Sunday killed 47 civilians, 39 of them women and children, an Afghan government investigating team says."

"Government officials say that more than 90 civilians died this week as a result of NATO and US operations, part of the 230 that a consortium of aid agencies, including CARE, Save the Children and Mercy Corps, estimate have died since the beginning of the year due to ill-planned military operations."

"ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, June 30 -- Just a week after Afghan President Hamid Karzai chastised international forces for being "careless," Afghan officials reported Saturday that possibly 100 or more civilians had been killed in a NATO and U.S.-led assault."

'No crimes'. No death penalties. In fact, rewards and accolades, or only admonishment. Mass graves and a complete ABSENCE of justice for the dead people in Afghanistan (or Iraq).

"Theres a season for war and a season for peace"... Ecclesiastes 3:1.

Wars have to be fought Steel because the spirit realm is full of evil spirit powers and authorities and they constantly manipulate men against other men.

Look in behind most of the conflicts and where they break out there is no Holy Bible in that society or not much... and in many cases the people have contact willingly with the dark side of the spirit world.

I think its ignoble to pick on the US or Nato.
They do what they can against dark powers and dark men.
Sadly there are casualities.
Even so Come Lord Jesus and bring this tired world Peace...Revelation 22:20.

Plenty of dead extremists is a good thing. The others just didn't know they were extremists yet.

Steel is no doubt aware lies are used in this area as freely as we in the west breath air.
We may be forgiven if we sometimes see such claims as just that lies.
Crying wolf can have that affect.
I in no way support deaths of non combatants, however I do not support the murders either.
Nore the use of children and women as human bombs.
The targeting, not mistakes, of civilians in market places and such by extremists too evil to consider human.
Yes we may well do harm in such places but can anyone compare our sins to the mad monsters who will kill their own so freely?

Steel,

You’re saying that the US and NATO are deliberately killing civilians in Afghanistan, is that right?

By the way, repeating the same claims three times during your post to pad it out seems a bit much, even for you.

There is little qualitative difference between deliberately targetting civilians and choosing to attack knowing that civilians are likely to be present. Either course takes the assailant out of the region of acceptable conduct for a civilised nation.

It's hardly surprising that one of the foremost Zionist apologists on this forum, Paul L., would be trying to obfuscate the issue by seeking to differentiate the two. Israel has a long and disreputable history of caring little for the fate of civilians who are not Jewish.
