Artillery uses ground spotters so that shells are not wasted on empty land or kill friendly forces. MaggieL should know this instead of using her extremism for rationalization. Air power requires ground spotters so that munitions are not scattered everywhere uselessly. Even Tora Bora happened only because CIA agents - without orders - went into Tora Bora to find bin Laden and to be ground spotters.
Crock of BS is again what MaggieL posts. If she really was an honest American, then she posts as any military man knows. Those planes indiscriminately attacked anything in a five mile area because Hezbollah rockets could not be identified. For same reasons, even Akkar province was bombed. Attack the innocents and they will drive out Hezbollah? More right wing extremist rationalization that killed innocent Lebanese.
MaggieL, this crock of BS is directly attributed to an extremist and therefore irrational mindset. You are smarter than that. Why do you mock the intelligence of the Cellar with proclamations that only the mental midget president could believe? You, MaggieL, know quite well that air power could not and could never target Hezbollah rockets and rocket launchers without ground spotters. You know that and your extremism will not let you be honest. Why do you outrightly lie to all in the Cellar? You are smarter than that.
How were Scud missiles finally located and destroyed? British SAS were dispatched to successfully find Scuds in the Scud box. Why? Air power alone could not find even one large Scud missiles in a desert. MaggieL thinks everyone in the Cellar is so dumb as to believe air planes without ground spotters could find tiny Hezbollah rockets in rough terrain when air power could not even find one tens of times larger Scud in open desert.
Crock of BS from MaggieL is so similar to what the radical American extremists kept saying to sacrifice so many of my generation in Vietnam. Reasons provided by a political agenda - whether it be from Curtis LeMay or MaggieL - is that irrational and dangerous. Notice how she even lies about indiscriminate air attacks by the IDF. Notice how she denies ground spotters - by pretending such functions do not even exist. Wacko extremists also run the White House. Notice how we are winning the war against a world wide terrorist network in Iraq and Afghanistan. Vietnam Deja Vue complete with MaggieL playing the part of a 1970 right wing extremist.
