OK, then Franklin Roosevelt was crazy by your definition. He indiscriminantly bombed civilians in Germany and Japan. Truman has to be one of the craziest sonsofbitches that ever lived, by your definition.
Might as well add in LBJ and Nixon too, while we're at it. They did the same thing in Vietnam and Cambodia.
Abraham Lincoln fed his armies off civilians.
I think that you're taking the lazy way out here. Calling him crazy, mad or any other synonym you want to trot out simply negates what you've already admitted is a justifable anger. You don't like his conclusions, so they have to be crazy. After all, no rational person would ever target civilians during war. Except that they always have been targeted, especially in wars before the internal combustion engine.
Wars are won by forcing the enemy into an untenable position. Guess who usually ends up on the losing end of that? Alwaki's simply declared war on us. I'm much more interested in how he arrived at his conclusions than dismissing him as a lunatic, since he's obviously not. But I guess I'm a lunatic since I've got an opinion you don't agree with.
