The difference is that the coalition forces aren't taking unnecessary lives. We have taken great care not to harm civilians. Sure there are going to be some civilian casualties just as there are friendly fire incidents. The President doesn't say hey go out there and kill. The soldiers act upon what they see. If they feel there is a threat in front of them then they fire. If this statement applied to now you would see thousands upon thousands of deaths, not hundreds.
