>>>So, you think the United States, a country that is taking much higher casualties in this war than it would have to,
"BECAUSE BUSH STARTED THIS UNNECESSARY WAR"
>>>if it didn't care so much about collateral damage, is equal to terrorists that specifically target any innocent civilians---preferably women and children?
About 13,000 Iraqis, including as many as 4,300 civilians, were killed during the major combat phase of the Iraq war, according to a US research group.

>>>I also hope that you are not only not an American, but that you didn't learn such things in an American school. I know some of our schools are pretty bad, but I hope they aren't that bad!
Why because I disagree with you? What kinda American are you? What a weak comment. To bad every ones Momma And Daddy cant send them to a "Christan Private School" Some of us had to live in the REAL WORLD.. Mingle with common folk..
>>Just so you know, an army attacking another army (or a terrorist group even) is not the same thing as terrorism. Nor is a country that is enforcing a peace treaty, or UN resolutions for that matter, terrorism. Terrorism is specifically attacking innocent civilians in order to try and terrorize a certain population
Are you going to tell me America does not, or has not ever been involved in terrorist activities? That America does not or has not FINANCED other terrorist countries?
You need to look up the definition of terrorism.
You'll never hear the bad things America is involved in, if you get all your news form the likes of Rush..
