The people who choose to use so-called "precision
weapons" should be tried for war crimes, imho, knowing
as they do that the margin of error of these so-called
"smart" but really dumb missiles and such will kill
civilians, babies, companion and other domestic
animals, flora, fauna, & etc within a certain radius,
if launched into a place like a city  - Baghdad, say -
or suburb or farm or mountain village hideout.

Argue about how many angels can dance on the head of
this ugly pin if you will, do that kill-radius media
spin dance, but I'll bet my next paycheck that Bush &
Co., representing us patriotic 'muricans, are doin'
evil on a scale commensurate with the "enemies" his
ancestor helped back in WWII.  I don't think we've
made much improvement, since then.  

If I understand the argument (forgive me if I don't,
the topic of total war makes me puke), that Dresden
wasn't as bad as the Blitz, doesn't make it good.
