guys, this was meant to spark conversation, opinions, etc.
Goffredo,
to spark discussion it is interesting to shift positions and see how people change, this is not meant to be a full out angry argument like some people have made it out to be, BTW, I stated my position at first in too harsh a manner.
BTW, I must stress, I am not less a brutal person than the romans, nazis, etc. given enough brainwashing as I have said, I would be first up for the benefits of brutality.
I had thought that we could have a healthy back and forth discussion about both sides on this board like we do on the WWII board, but it seems I may have brought out a few emotions in some people, Jasper, if you want you can lock this thread without me protesting.
I have however found that, especially with more modern conflicts, it is better to open the scars to let them bleed out with debate than to just let them fester, and stay unspoken of.
