I agree with our guest, Kat's beligerence led to his reply. It is the same reason war with Iran is justified.
The responsibility for all deaths in war lies with the aggressor who initiates force, not with those who defend themselves.
War is terrible but sometimes necessary. To win this current war, we must not let an immoral concern with "innocents" weaken our resolve. We have the right to destroy those who initiate force to deprive us of our rights and lives. With full moral certainty we must urge our government to defend our lives, even if that requires nuclear weapons and hundreds of thousands of deaths in terrorist countries such as Iran.
