Jane Fonda's hallucinations

Jane Fonda strikes again: Jane Fonda: U.S. Troops Are 'Killing Machines'.

Our troops are trained to be as efficient as possible at their jobs, which means killing the enemy. Dehumanization of the enemy is the only way to keep the troops psychologically intact. But when the cowardly enemy refuses to be recognized as the enemy, instead hiding among the populace, then mistakes happen. This is not a fault of our troops to mistakenly kill a civilian sometimes, it is the fault of the terrorists. The terrorists want as many civilian casualties as possible, and they will do anything to accomplish that goal.

So the troops are forced to fire back at anybody that fires at them, in self-defense. They can't make the distinction between a civilian and a terrorist, except by the fact that terrorists shoot at them.

Yes, this is having a negative affect on our troops, and I wish there was a way around it. Freedom has a price, and it must be paid. And it gets paid every day, in the blood of American troops and terrorists. Hopefully more terrorists than troops.
