enemies need to be utterly destroyed and then pacification takes place . See the 'highway of death' to see an example of destruction , see Dresden Germany and the nuking of 'japan. mrobama fights with 'pinprick' bombings and bad rules of engagement for American troops that prevent a 'real' win Camp . Get some old time Generals back to fight 'Islamic state' rather than lapdogs Camp .
The 'highway of death' was a major cause for us to end Desert Storm early and make that horrible surrender agreement that allowed Iraq the use of helicopters to massacre the Shiite's we had convinced to resist. It had no impact on Saddam's decision to surrender. The butchery impacted Colin Powell into the early ending.
The fire bombing of Dresden had no military value. All that happened is the shame we now share with Great Britain. We murdered innocent civilians in horrible fashion.
Debate about nuking Japan goes on to this day. No clear evidence or judgement that it was needed to stop that war.
Trump's idea is amateur and will fail while it gets huge numbers of Americans maimed and killed along with huge numbers of innocents who we will call "collateral damage".
