    blanket indiscriminate destruction

    Even that doesn’t work, as shown by the fact that hamas still exists even though nearly every structure in Gaza doesn’t.

      I think the Lemmite up thread was referring to indiscriminate destruction of people. A complete genocide. An insurgency can’t exist if there’s no population for it to hide in.

      With a few exceptions, we’ve kind of backed off on that for the last seventy years or so. I hope that we keep that up.
