Re: Humans will always have the most important battlefield role
"That's why the US invaded countries like Iraq and left behind masses of casualties (among the civilians of the countries involved)? Because they have a limited appetite for casualties?"
I believe when the original poster wrote "the high-tech side generally has a limited appetite for casualties" he really meant "the high-tech side generally has a limited appetite for casualties ON THEIR OWN SIDE". As you rightly point out, they do not give a s**t about casualties on the other side.
