Default RE:So we bombed an innocent wedding? Sounds like more hogwash to me...

I think the US does a good job of not killing civilians, simply because they have the most sophisticated "clinical" weapons and the soldiers have the right mindset and training. If your country is under attack by a foreign force, which army would you rather have doing the operations?

However, it would be interesting to compare the numbers of civilians killed by US soldiers vs. US civilians killed by a foreign army...

When was the last time a foreign army fought on the US mainland (excluding 911 and Pearl Harbor of course)?
