So basically, there is a consensus across the board that an attack cannot be held back solely for fear of civilian casualties. The flag-bearers of democracy and capitalism, the Sufis, and the "wahhabis" (read: muslims) all believe so.
Consensus among who? The talib terrorist and their mullah backers? It's funny that the mullah gang cries aloud about any civilian deaths when American forces attack the human shields used by taliban, but they themselves would kill those same civilians without even thinking twice about it. Great way to fight your fake "jihad" by killing the most number of muslims.
