Is it within scholarly, journalistic rules of conduct to refer to Pentagon Joint Chief Chairman as a terrorist P.O.S.?

Is it possible, the "Prepare for 30 more years of war" Dempsey/Panetta little boys with toys terrorist team of lowlife death cult maniacs simply don't warrant such positive accolades as the above label?

You just can’t make this stuff up – US to learn war tactics from Israelis

Dempsey: US sent team to Israel to learn war tactics

Top Daily Story … Press TV, Tehran

[ Editor's note: Either Dempsey has lost his mind or he had some very bad staff work here. As we know the Pentagon reads all VT war and foreign policy material, and we know we reported the rare occurrence of secondary explosions in strikes they said they were conducting to take out firing and weapons and munitions storage. ]

They used this cover when it came to attacking known refugee locations, and again where time after time no photos appeared with the fireworks secondary explosions when such a target is hit. It is a war photographer's dream come true to catch these on film.

We also find it hard to believe the Pentagon did not know that Hamas had gone very deep to protect itself from the next Israeli bombardment, which is always quite predictable.

It's almost like the munitions manufacturers that get the Israel business put in an order for another Gaza attack to boost their quarterly earnings.

And last, there is nothing that the Pentagon has not already learned about collateral damage, as we have had extensive bombing practice over the last 14 years.

It's not like we are on the front end of the learning curve on any of this.

My verdict?... a major goof here, to publicly expose this ridiculous logic of learning how to reduce civilian casualties from the JISIL, the ultimate Palestinian civilian killer, including children.

Dempsey made a big goof here, connecting the Pentagon to this.

The top US military commander says the United States is learning from Israel’s tactics on how to limit civilian casualties in a war, despite the international outcry over the regime’s brutality in Gaza.

General Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Thursday that the Pentagon has sent a team to see what lessons could be learned from the recent Israeli invasion of Gaza on how to limit civilian casualties.

Dempsey said the Pentagon had sent the team of senior officials and non-commissioned officers three months ago “to include the measures they took to prevent civilian casualties and what they did with tunneling” in US military operations.

He claimed the Israeli military went to “extraordinary lengths” to limit civilian casualties in the 50-day Gaza war.

The remarks came as the recent war has been widely condemned by the international community over the killing of civilians including women and children.

Even, the White House criticized Israel for causing “indefensible and unacceptable” deaths during the war.

Dempsey blamed the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, Hamas, for creating what he called “very nearly a subterranean society,” referring to the Palestinian defense infrastructure.

“In this kind of conflict, where you are held to a standard that your enemy is not held to, you’re going to be criticized for civilian casualties,” the general said during an appearance at the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs in New York.

He praised the so-called roof-knocking technique as some of the measures used by the Israeli military to avoid civilian casualties.

The technique involves dropping a low-yield explosives device on the roof of a building before launching a full-blown attack.

The technique was criticized by rights groups over its ineffectiveness in warning civilians.

The groups say it can kill residents of a building instead of making them leave it.

The Israeli regime launched its war on Gaza on July 8 and later expanded its military campaign with a ground invasion of the Palestinian territory.

At least 2,140 Palestinians were killed during the recent Gaza war, mostly civilians.

During the operation, Israel even attacked UN-run schools, prompting the Amnesty International to condemn Israel’s “callous indifference” to the carnage caused by attacks on civilian targets.
