It was the US Government that wanted our young men down in a hole. In spite of our country’s immense strength and wealth, were impotent in the face of a weaker enemy who was willing to employ a “hit and run” strategy. Our strategy in turn was to burn everything in sight like a petulant pyromaniac toddler. It was an imprecise and desperate method and spoke more about rage and frustration than strategy and strength. Today, we have a popular internet meme (see below) of using the panicked exclamation “Kill it with fire!” When a troop came under fire from just a single sniper, it was this overarching panic that led Lt. Cross to call in a napalm strike. This was obvious overkill meant to make the soldiers feel better about their own power rather than to actually improve their safety. Nothing sums that up better than the sentiment of “America, Fuck Yeah!”
Freedom is the only way yeah,
Terrorist your game is through cause now you have to answer too,
America, FUCK YEAH!
