    I don't believe that.

    The evidence is overwhelming that it's true. Seriously.
    Not that they didn't kill any innocents; not that things happened that shouldn't have, even war crimes; just that they did more to safeguard the rights of civilians in a combat zone than any other army in the history of warfare.

    To prove that, you'd have to examine every other conflict in history. Otherwise a single counterexample would invalidate it. It seems rather a comprehensive statement to make.

    Personally, the white phosphorous is all I need to see.

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.

Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.

Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.

As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
