    If the purpose of our military action was to target innocent civilians at random and to inflict ‘terror’ on them, then you would find that 100 percent of Americans would be opposed to that sort of activity. The Taliban – owned and operated by Osama Bin Laden and Al Queda – set out to target and kill innocent civilians on Sept. 11. They succeeded. And now they must suffer the consequences of that immoral behavior.

    Unlike the attack Sept. 11, we gave the Taliban and Afghan people plenty of warning before commencing the targeting of military objectives – warnings and targeting that very well may cost additional American, British and other Allied lives because we seek to minimize civilian casualties. Had we no compunction about the loss of innocent civilians in Afghanistan, they would be laid waste – and no food support would be sent to them, either.
