Of course a surgically precise war is accomplished. It means ground spotters. Oh. But that is too dangerous. So instead declare anything that moves as the enemy - and kill it. It's called a free fire zone. It is what the US military did in Vietnam when top generals had no idea why America was losing a Vietnam war.

Only reason those civilians are intentionally being killed - Israel does not have the balls to attack Hezbollah using troops. Too many dead Israelis would then drive centrists out of extremists ranks and back to where intelligent people think without emotional bias.

Your post implies Dresden had a military purpose. It did not. It was based in a failed concept that one wins by killing more enemy. Battles are not won that way. But again, first year Military Science. Define a victory. Little hint. Victory is not defined by more dead bodies. Only those with 'big dic' mentalities believe those myths. Military Science 101. Define victory.
