They have no idea who was in there. They have no idea whether it was good guys or bad guys.

Just killing and making up stories.

Yea it's justifiable to bombs away in places like Pakistan. A few dozen or more innocent civilian casualties are totally expendable if it means that SUSPECTED al qaida operatives are killed. What do they call it, collateral damage? Obviously such ratios are totally unacceptable in other countries, if this happened in the U.S. there would be unbelievable rage and condemnation. Yet in places like Pakistan it is acceptable and glossed over.

No end in sight.

USA OUT of there NOW! This kind of outrageous murder should be unacceptable to the American people---Where's the protest, the outrage? Apathy about this endless obscene war is insane. And since Prez-elect Obama seems to be another Dem Hawk about this war, I'm very pessimistic that it will end soon or with any kind of "honor". What a shame and black mark in 'Merikan history...another one. I'm STILL ashamed to be an American citizen in many ways--and this is the main reason. Where is Michelle Obama's outrage now?

The radical left supports giving militants a free reign in Pakistan to kill coalition troops.

What will the death toll be when Obama steps up attacks? He promised to invade.

That may be true. But if it is, I haven't seen anyone from the radical left posting here. I think that the greater number of people who deplore this kind of action (and that seems to include--at least publicly--the president of Pakistan), find it objectionable because it is not a fine tool and because it does more harm than it does good.

A day or two after Zardari pleaded with Rice to scale back attacks this is America's answer.
