We can question the logic of the Muslim man on the street, but the sobering reality is that every civilian killed by US weaponry (regardless of the reason) usually creates dozens of mortal enemies in that person's extended family. Afghanistan and Pakistan are also starting to unravel and if the US thinks that an air war will help the situation, their think-tanks should read the types of stories that started this thread. With their current policies, the United States is making enemies faster than it can kill them.
