Seems it's a massive target practice, using live targets (=Iraqi soldiers & military facilities etc..). Perhaps someone can argue their lives are worthless because they're not Americans. I hope it's done and over tomorrow and get what we want.

Jin, War has a bit more "romantic" appeal. DR

Revised post:

You seem to be upset because the carnage is "one-sided". Would you feel better if more Americans were killed? If so, why? If not, what is the point of your post?

No one is arguing that Iraqi lives are worthless (although Saddam is demonstrating the HE thinks they're worthless). To the contrary, we are taking extraordinary measures to AVOID killing more of them than is absolutely necessary. A behavior that is relatively new in the History of Warfare.
