USAAF airmen flying over Germany in 1944 and 1945 were advised to shoot at anything which might contribute to maintaining the German economy. Accordingly, they bombed and strafed trains, boats, vehicles of all kinds, soldiers, AND civilian men, women, and children who were caught out in the open, AND farm animals in the fields. They shot at every living thing they could see....and that was official policy passed down by their high command.

One Mustang pilot was heard to remark to another after a typical strafing mission, "I hope to God we win this war, because we'll be in a whole heap of trouble if we don't..."

Similar things were done by some American helicopter crews in Vietnam.

Did you think only Islamic "terrorists" do it? Who is the terrorist's terrorist in this world? He is the man who has at his command an entire modern army, air force, and navy. That guy can do terrorism on a scale that will make your head swim...they call it "Shock and Awe".
