Muslim fighters and civilians wiped out, versus not even a scratch on us lot.
AIR STRIKES BY NATO ON IRAQ - more cowardly asymetric warfare but so popular when we can kill foreigners without being killed ourselves. 524 in favour; 43 against on Friday 26 September 2014.
As with Israel in attacking Gaza with almost complete impunity, we are also waging our wars from the air, alone so not one of our armed forces people stand any chance whatsoever of getting killed. Drones and war planes to bring death for Muslims from the skies but, our soldiers risking their deaths on the ground to effectively deal with Isis, is ruled out. For me, these are immoral, unjust wars but very popular with the 'Christian' West and Israel when their own soldiers are immune from harm.
In all our wars, we end up killing mostly civilians, the non-combatants who simply want to be left alone from American, British, French and Israeli attacks from the air. Once you start down that road, in order to win your war, you have to commit genocide and slaughter the lot, which is obviously impractical and immoral.
As we found with our wars of aggression in SE Asia over many decades of killing 'Communists', the people we are trying to kill simply melt away into 'nowhere'. We lost every single war, too!
As we waged war on Muslims and others in the Middle East, we found with the failed War of Terrorism, that many of our weapons simply ended up in the hands of the Jihadists. We should never have started.
As we found with our friend and ally Israel, trying to stop the noise and inconvenience of Hamas rockets by sending over their/our much more lethal missiles, it still ends with killing and injuring many more Gazan civilians than Hamas fighters who never did stop their rocket firing - until the ceasefire took effect.
If they want to have a pure, Shariah law, Islamic State let them. We have our pure, democratic, capitalist state. In the West, after centuries of intolerance and brutal religious persecution, we now pride ourselves on our political and religious tolerance - until recent years. Muslims in the UK are no threat to ourselves and are not even campaigning for the imposition of Shariah Law, apart from in a few domestic/marital matters affecting Muslims, only. In Iraq, I understood, IS gave the people the choice of converting to Islam, paying a fine or leaving. When Christians fled to the mountain top, American humanitarian aid was dropped but, also, the bombing and missile attacks from the air began. In retaliation, the beheadings of Western journalists and aid workers started. Revenge is sweet for the religious and irreligious of both 'Islam' and 'Christianity'. We all like to get our own back in some way or another.
