Andy: Except that we're the Germans in this war. The Americans started it for no legitimate reason at all. That means nothing to you.

Eric: You miss the point. It's about the difference between two strategies: minimizing civilian casualties, as the US tasks its soldiers, and maximizing civilian casualties, as al-Qaeda directs its operatives.

That's why it appears to mean nothing to me--it's not what we're discussing. You want to drag this into the issue. Fine, but then it becomes another issue, and you shouldn't claim I'm discussing it.
