That's the argument against the war in Afghanistan?  Collective punishment?
And so does that mean that a special ops mission that targets Al Qaeda leaders

Come on, the argument against the war in Afghanistan is the same as against

any and all obstacles to increasing the immiseration so necessary to capitalist
accumulation.
