I do not like seeing innocent people die either. But people are driven by incentives, the only reason terrorists continue to hide with innocent people and the innocent people allowing it is because they know we would never blow them up because of the civilian causalities. But if we were to show them that we do not care and we are willing to blow up an entire city for the greater good, then they would obviously get rid of the terrorists themselves. It would be either that or get blown up every other week. This would also give the terrorists less incentive to actually commit terrorist acts.

I do not like see "innocent" or "guilty" people, for that matter, die at the hands of violence (that includes terrorism).
But having that said, my view is that if people of specific countries (or areas) allow these men/people to in flick harm on others, they are just accountable for condoning their violence (terror).
Kind of example: If a person willing knows that their friend/sibling/Uncle/Brother/whomever is being a ________ (fill in the blank with something like this: thug/bully/etc) and you do not report them (or get them to stop) you are just as responsible for their
continued actions of terror as they are for continuing to commit them.
Hope you understand my view......basically if you have them hide with you (or allow them to bully/beat up the neighbor kid everyday) then you are allowing for them to continue their reign of terror, just as if you were doing it yourself.
