"Their blood is on your hands, how can you continue to support this war?"
You would say?

First off, if presented with such imagery I would have an emotional reaction as well as an intellectual one, and I would not deny it.
Since this is most hypothetical, I would say the use of cluster bombs and mines that caused the child’s loss of limbs to be reprehensible, and would call for their removal from these people’s backyards or as we call it “the battlefield”.
In the case of the dead US soldier, I would morn the loss of one of our best, and call for the best support of his colleagues. This would include the best equipment and body armor available. I would also call for the Afghan government, the Canadians, the French, the Germans and others outside of NATO to do their best to bring this situation under control by providing all the resources they can. I would call for the hunting down the warlords who control the poppy fields and deal with the Taliban to be taken out along with Bin laden. The warlords may control the countryside, but they are not the legitimate government.
Back to work.
