As a former member of the U.S. Military, I am quite aware that the Taliban, and their ilk, will locate near or in civilian areas. This gives them two advantages: (1) they feel protected by surrounding themselves with innocent "victims" should they be attacked; (2) once attacked and innocent civilians, especially children, are injured or killed they can then point the finger (you can guess which one) at our military and attempt to make us the monsters.

While I have great sympathy for any injured or killed child, I cannot stand by and allow soft emotions to take the blame away from those who desire our destruction and who attack us. The fault lies wholly with the Taliban in this case.

President Obama has truly done a great deal to bring peace to our troubled world and prevent more attacks upon our soil. Or, would you rather that we again, and again, loose over 3,000 souls to terrorists and murderers?
