Before I ask the question: I am not arguing with or criticizing you. I am not taking sides. I am genuinely interested in answers to my question. I am not myself sure what that answer could be. Killing anyone is horrible. We should be past these kinds of behaviors as a species.
That said, here's the question:
How would you approach eliminating terrorists, terrorist training camps, terrorist strongholds and terrorist leaders with zero collateral damage? Of course, knowing full well that the collateral damage is split between terrorist supporters and absolutely innocent people.
Remember, these are the very people who not only want to but have killed thousands, tens of thousands, perhaps even hundreds of thousands innocent civilians throughout the world. If they could detonate a massive bomb in the middle of a stadium full with 50,000 people, they would.
In other words, they are coming to kill you, your family, friends and loved ones. What do you do?
In many ways it's the old "If you could save a thousand lives by taking one, would you?"
I've heard opinions ranging from "just get out of the middle east and let them rot in hell" to "one nuke, one time and it's over". Not sure what the answer is. Always interested in hearing what others might thing the solution could be.

- rebootthesystem 10y agoWon't someone else do that? The weapons industry is sick this way. The US doesn't want to sell? OK, maybe Russia does. Or some third party who knows how to get them, whether a front for a country or not. Truly sick.
