War Is (Supposed to Be) HELL

War! What is it good for?
Absolutely... somthing. It's supposed to be a way to break the will of your enemies and (hopefully) bring peace.
I know I'm likely going to get a lot of negative comments on this, but I want to make it clear that I am NOT suggesting that we start or encourage wars, but when war is brought to us, we need to be able to bring our fists and end the fight with no holds barred.
Right now, most of the civilized world follows The Geneva Conventions, which sets limits on how countries engage in wars. It sets clear guidelines about what is allowed, and what is not, so that civilians and non-military targets are preserved.
It's a wonderful concept on paper, but when your enemy does not follow these rules, it gives them an edge because they can take advantage of the rules to hide among civilians.
Simply stated, if we go to war... we GO TO WAR. If they hide among civilians, that's their problem. Nobody wants to see civilian casualties, so if they want to avoid that kind of collateral damage, then they need to take the fight outside and follow the same rules.
If one side breaks the rules... the other side must do likewise.
