I am not suggesting we kill them all, I am just saying the situation determines the conditions of surrender, not just now, but always. The United States did not ask for unconditional surrender from the Germans, the Iraqis pretty much came to us with it, the Taliban doesn't have to, they only have to exist in any form to claim some kind of victory, to them, the deaths of thousands is meaningless when the object is religious extremism. Realize also, that the blanket disreguard for ones enemy is often the logical result from an intense war such as WWII, and also to the combatants now in the mideast. To say the US overcame it's hatred so fast and instituted the Marshall Plan in 48 is a glowing acknowledgement to our character.
