      Expose it, mock it, surgical strike which definitely can be possible. And sometimes, when the opposing force isn’t a threat to anyone but the human shields, yet the human shields support the opposing force, then you can just maybe give them that autonomy sometimes.

        Unfortunately there are few cases where the group in question isn’t a threat. By your plan, the US should allow regions to secede if that is their wish. They won’t be a threat except to their own residents, who have shown their support by electing the officials seeking secession.

          Constitutionally probably not possible, but in principle I think anyone should be able to secede.
