ground troops

[Doug Henwood]

Speaking of ground troops, I have a question for our resident warriors,
Field Marshal Burford and Brigadier General Newman: if humanitarian
concerns were really at the forefront, wouldn't the "right" thing to do be
to deploy a large contingent of soldiers rather than bomb empty police HQ,
oil refineries, bridges, and refugee convoys? Don't you find something
deeply cowardly and hypocritical about this whole approach, in which
hundreds of immediate and thousands of long-term civilian deaths are deemed
acceptable in order to spare American lives?
