I can’t speak for bad dog but that’s pretty much exactly what I’m saying. Save the innocents lives, help the children, but totally **** up their fighters. Make them fear us. When they’re asked to join isis America should pop in their heads, and the potential for what could happen should help in their decisions. I’m tired of being the good guy. We are the only country following the rules when it comes down to it.Okay. Just so I’m understanding you accurately. You’ve left no room to doubt. Only follow rules you think makes sense. Be as violent as you want to be because they do it.

There are rules imposed by the military leaders on conduct. Just so we’re clear on this, you’re saying **** those rules, it’s okay if someone breaks them because the other side is horrible. That’s what you seem to be saying.
Meeting sadism with sadism rarely wins anything, but more enemies. The reason why we're the United States of America, is because we are above such things.
We tried that. The bleeding hearts called it "torture".I've always thought this was a curious expression, as with few exceptions, "fighting fire with fire" often leads to a bigger fire. How about fighting fire with water?
As far as sympathy, who is sympathizing with the ISIS member? He most certainly wouldn't have held to the same standard, and that's the point. Savages will be savages, to mirror their behavior makes us little better. If there is ay sympathy to be had, it's for the men and women in the armed forces that hold themselves to a higher stander being subjected to people like Gallagher in their ranks.
I don't think you can beat an enemy like them by treating them humanely and with respect. If you want to beat them, you need to kill every one of them you find, along with their families, friends, and anyone else within range, as brutally as possible. If you want to just drag things out forever and eventually just give up in defeat, go ahead and treat them with humanity and dignity.
Just my opinion.

So if we start killing their friends and families how exactly are we different from them?
We should go back to WWII tactics. Complete, overwhelming destruction of the enemy. War should be terrible. It should be so terrible that any country should see it as a complete last resort and be very hesitant to enter into it. Look at both World Wars. They were over in what? 4, 5 years? We've been dragging this **** out in the middle east for going on 20 years now (just since 9/11, not counting all the crap before that).
We didn't kill POWs and intentionally target civilians in ww2.
Clearly counter insurgency and world wars aren't similar.

As everybody knows, when the british were over here trying to fight us over our independence they would line up in rows in their red suits out in the open and shoot at us. They were told to do this by their military leaders. Their military leaders were not very smart.
Yes, there are rules that should be followed if they make sense. But they only make sense if everybody follows those rules.
