All sorts of artillery installations, rockets and tank units that are firing on civilians in Kosovo should be neutralized. If that means air strikes, then NATO should carry out air strikes.
Fatos Nano
At least 23,000 civilians have also died in the Iraqi killing field and the U.S. is stuck in a quagmire.
Charles Rangel
Certainly, the murder of civilians for political statement did not just begin on September 11, 2001.
Cliff Stearns
Common sense should tell us that there is no reason for civilians to have access to easily concealable handguns with the capability to shoot through body armor.
Carl Levin
Could anything justify the extermination of civilians on such a scale?
Wilfred Burchett
Except when war is waged in a desert, noncombatants, also known as civilians or "the people," constitute the great majority of those affected.
Martin Van Creveld
Finally, I am encouraged to note that the Security Council issued a statement today expressing its concern about the massive humanitarian crisis in Darfur and calling on all parties to the conflict to protect civilians and reach a ceasefire.
Jan Egeland
I have no stories to sell. A lot of my relationships are with civilians, and no one wants to hear about those.
David Spade
I think attacks on civilians in fact boost morale.
Tom Paulin
I think it is tragic that a situation should arise where civilians on any side are killed. But it is almost a cliche to say that it is virtually unavoidable and this isn't unique to us alone.
Joe Slovo
If civilians are going to be killed, I would rather have them be their civilians than our civilians.
Stuart Symington
Indiscriminate attacks on civilians ought, under all circumstances, to be illegal in war as in peacetime.
Gijs de Vries
It is changing the face of terrorism. It is basically bringing it to the United States, to our great citizens. We know the terrorists are barbaric and murderers that attack innocent civilians, as they did in this case.
Hugh Shelton
It is criminal to put our servicemen and women in harm's way and to put the lives of so many civilians on the line for the misguided frustrations of the Bush administration.
Dave Matthews
It is up to you civilians to give a hand to show that we intend to take our responsibilities to maintain the integrity of our Empire, by giving the world proof that we have not all sold out to the Jew or Plutocrat.
John Amery
It is vital that Iraq and the United States together send the clearest possible signal that those who commit acts of violence against American military forces and American civilians will not be rewarded with amnesty.
Ike Skelton
It seems like such a terrible shame that innocent civilians have to get hurt in wars, otherwise combat would be such a wonderfully healthy way to rid the human race of unneeded trash.
Fred Woodworth
Military strength in reserve is better than military strength being reigned upon the other side including all of its innocent civilians.
Theodore C. Sorensen
No, the United States does not target civilians.
Douglas Feith
Obama is making a choice now that will lead to the deaths of many thousands of civilians in Afghanistan by American hands. By ordinary standards of presidents, he is a decent man. But those standards aren't good enough. He's in a position either to kill or not to kill, and he's made the decision to kill.
