...I think that if the US scrapped the precision munitions for those with a much large area of effect, and viewed all of the people it encountered as the enemy. (such as the bombs used in WWII) That we would have much less problems with these uprisings in Iraq...
Presumably because everybody local would either be dead or scared shitless by a savage military onslaught?

What's wrong with deciding that the military options are a resort only after being attacked by another nation's military? Otherwise the WoT is fought using police work and extradition treaties?
