hmm, why are you guys so quickly dismissing this issue? Is it that you believe "out military" doesn't do such things? Or is it because newsmax hastn't reported it?

Because not only am I a member of the US military but 7 of my uncles and my father served in various wars. They know what goes on much more than you. While various things occur which are tragic nothing is intentional.
You may point out civilians caught in crossfire. It's the Iraqis that are forcing women/children to run into the fight to grab fallen weapons, while the Americans yell at them to stay low. It is the untrained militia that fire wildly killing the civilians, not the highly accurate US grunt.
It is the Iraqis that are forcing the US to use weapons against Mosques. Or would you rather allow them to fire from behind those sacred monuments?

You cant honestly tell me that by the end of the war those countries couldnt be classified as a 3rd world nation. No industry left, no military left, no government structure, no economy of any kind.
Strike one for you.

And giving presents to Hitler/Stalin/Mao would have convinced them to stand down huh? Strike two for you.

If that is the case, then why didn't the U.S drop leaflets telling the Iraqi's they were there to help them rather than decimating Bagdad night after night for weeks on end

They did, my uncle flew in the C-130 that dropped them.
Wow, strike three what do you know...
