11. I agree that the French resistance did target suspected

collaborators and the German occupation forces. I think where they missed out was in was the PR value of large scale indiscriminate slaughter of civilians in markets, schools, religious processions and the like.

Look I admit it is a great strategy in the modern age, so I have some "respect" for the perpetrators. I only hope that now that we have provided the proving ground for this strategy, it is not used in the resolution which, as you say (and I agree), will occur after we leave.
