I AGREE: Let the IDF Win. “Without exception, the soldiers I spoke with also criticized what they see as overly restrictive rules of engagement that unnecessarily endanger their lives. In their view, these policies stem either from concerns about international political pressure-particularly from the United States-or from placing excessive emphasis on the welfare of enemy civilians at the expense of Israel’s own troops, who are not a far-removed army, but everyone’s husband, fathers and sons.”

Their guidance should be Curtis LeMay, Arthur Harris, and William Tecumseh Sherman.
