Yeah. They should have fought one of them really cool, romantic, picturesque, kind-hearted, decent, warm-fuzzy, lovey-dovey battles instead. Yanno, the same way every other war-time battle throughout the history of the world has been fought by people in countries other than the U.S.A. I'm sure all you people outside the U.S.A fight your wars with the utmost respect for your enemies and treat them with nothing but kindness and love, right?

.....and basically is trying to kill you any way they can, you're scared shitless to the point of pissing yourself and kill EVERYTHING in sight or that makes a noise until no one is trying to kill you anymore, and you can get the hell out of Dodge and go back to your home, wife, and kids.

There is no thinking involved when it comes to how much respect you should show the enemy, or how politically correct you should be. You don't have time for that shit.
