The term "coward" is being thrown around a lot in regards to the "enemy" in Afghanistan.
I am curious as to why so many of you seem fond of using that term. It doesn't strike me as any more accurate in regards to the terrorists than it does if applied to our own forces, with our leaders in hiding in times of danger and our long historical tendency to prefer relatively safe air strikes to cut down on American casualties.
How would you define "cowardice" and what do you gain by continually using that term in regards to the terrorists?
The way some of you seem to be using it, the terrorists are "cowards" if take cover from our bombs and missles instead of standing out in the open to be easily blown up by us.
