Surely you can't be serious.

In case you didn't notice, the WTC was filled with *civilians* on 9/11.
Even if we *do* carry out a preemptive strike on Iran, we will be
targeting military installations and other strategic military sites. We
will not be indiscriminately killing innocent civilians.

That's how it's materially different.

Oh, sure - the same way we have not been killing innocent civilians in
Iraq and Afghanistan?

Think about it. There were four planes down on 9/11. One crashed into a
field. Two were flown into the towers. That was indiscriminately killing
innocent civilians, and according to JB, that was a not okay. And, he/she
is right about that.

But the third plane was flown into the Pentagon. I guess that one must have
been excusable since it only targeted a military institution.
