  Making the analogy of a cannon and a fly is a bit diffent.  Hearing the 
screaming of wounded, and hearing bullets hit, and being in pain, I said hell 
with propiety, and *I* didn't sign the GC, and sure as hell used a AT-4 on 
troops uniforms.  If I destroy what I was trying to protect, I can at least 
rebuild it.
  To me, using a TOW-II on troops is perfectly acceptable, and as for 
innocents and other collateral damage, I'll simply quote to you what was told 
to me "You were acceptable losses."
  A fly won't shoot at me, and I don't have to use a cannon on it, but I 
would prefer overkill to underkill and me being killed.
  But that is just the way I feel.
   Sorry to barge in.
