@kritiper I guess I’m talking about human beings, rather than people, whatever you may mean by that. I’m sad about a hundred thousand dead civilians, who were just trying to get through their lives, just like me. I hope you won’t hold that against me.
I also feel sad to think that if Afghanistan had made war on the US and killed 100k civilians, you might not be so glib. Do correct me if I’m wrong, and forgive me for misjudging you.
Also, feel free to berate me about all the other possible responses the US could not have mounted, because of how idealistic and militarily naive I am. It was absolutely imperative that we bomb the place back to the Stone Age—there was just no other possible response, and I’m quite sure you can explain it all to me in sarcastic detail.
I’m all ears.
