You know even when I post a statement calling the war "nasty, dirty, deadly and downright savage", which is akin to the oft-repeated quip "
War is hell" that is often made here, I'm still accused of being biased.
All I'm saying is that neither side is perfect and to think that the US always "warns" their targets to avoid civilian (or non-combatant) casualities is ideal in the extreme.
What does it tell you about certain members of the political spectrum on this board that, when their "opponents" on the other side agree with them and use some of the same arguments to explain horrible events, they still get accused of bias?
