Civilian and military leaders in the USA today, take note!  This is how you destroy and defeat an enemy.  You kill every last one of them.  And rest assured, given the opportunity, ISIS or some other muslim group would most definitely use any means possible to unleash such terror upon the American people.  That is why this type of attack is mandated to defeat ISIS.  This single bomb through the window nonsense must come to an end.  It is idiocy.


Seventy years ago on the night of 9-10 March, in the Japanese capital, 334 American B-29 bombers dropped thousands of tonnes of incendiary bombs on the city's crowded wooden neighbourhoods.

They started a fire storm that burned at over 1,000 degrees and killed more than 100,000 people.

It was an event that dwarfed even the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, yet it's been all but forgotten around the world - even in Japan.
