The attack will not be on the Afghan people, or whatever little
infrastructure they have left. The enemy is not the Afghan people. The enemy
is Bin Laden, his organization and the Taliban government that harbors them.

>From this post and particularly the passage above, I infer that Jody (and
perhaps some others) believe that NATO's intent is an indiscriminate war on
the Afghan people. The idea that it's the intent of the US, Belgium, Canada,
Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy,
Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, and United
Kingdom to target or wage war on innocent people is... insulting. Tell me
this is not what you implied.

"In the carboniferous epoch
we were promised perpetual peace.
They swore if we gave up our weapons
that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed they sold us,
and delivered us, bound, to our foe.
And the gods of the copybook headings said,
'Stick to the devil you know.' "
