Always been a failure when it has been used? The goal of saturation bombing (Which is the original military term), is too inflict damage in every part of a selected area of land, In contrast to precision bombing, it is not aimed at a small target such as a bunker, an airfield, or a military unit, instead to do mass damge to cities and importent ifastrature..

Looking at 99.9% of all cities that were saturation bombed, they were all destroyed achieving saturation bombing goal of "inflict damage in every part of a selected area of land"

Looking at Wesel for example were 97% of the city was destroyed before it was finally taken by Allied troops in 1945, it is hugely successful.

Yet, as as demonstrated, Ahovking, saturation bombing has never brought a nation to it's knees and made it sue for peace.  Invariably what it does is drives the people closer to their government and support them in their efforts to get revenge.  From WWI when the Germans first attempted the concept with Zeppelins and aicraft, through to today it hasn't worked.  Didn't work in Grozny,

Indeed, in Germany, the more the Allies bombed, war production increased.  The Allied strategy of "dehousing" the German civilian population destroyed all the non-strategic industries so suddenly more workers were freed for redeployment to war industries, Ahovking.

Well - it's a bit of a tongue in cheek exposé of Saudi Arabia -

the biggest hypocrites in the world who always talk about
Allah the merciful - & then they show no mercy.

Between 1976 and 2006, Saudi developmental aid amounted to USD49 billion,[1] second only to the United States of America. The ODA/GNP ratio averaged 4.2% over this period, well above the highest amount provided by Development Assistance Committee countries (the DAC average is 0.35%).[2] On a per-capita basis, the country is the biggest worldwide donor

the world’s most generous country in percentage terms is the United Arab Emirates

Viceroy,
forget about all their charity -

what have they done to stop ISIS?

Infamous Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 21, was the victim of an “unfortunate accident” yesterday at Ft. Devens Detention Center in Massachusetts, just weeks after his high-profile trial began, according to warden Paul Jacobson.

Corrections officers reportedly found the alleged terror suspect face down in a pool of his own blood in his cell; a banana peel was found on the floor nearby.

“It initially appeared as though Tsarnaev slipped on a discarded banana peel and hit the floor with such force that his head bounced off the hard tile surface, probably 16 or 17 times. There was blood everywhere – all over the walls, the floor, even the toilet. The injuries have caused massive brain trauma,” said prison investigator Joe Goldsmith. “We determined though, through expert analysis, that it would be impossible for these injuries to have occurred through a fall. Our investigation has shown that that it was the Aryan Brotherhood who initiated an attack on Tsarnaev.”

“Yes, it was the brotherhood who took care of that bomber,” said Miles Smith, head of the Aryan Nation inside Devens. “The other gangs, they wanted him, too. We paid the guards the most money to have a shot. They stood aside, and let us do what we do. On the way out, they shook our hands, told us ‘Thank you.’ Well, You’re welcome. You’re welcome, Boston. You’re welcome, America!”

“Normally, an attack this violent, this cruel, on another inmate would get any offending party more time added to their sentence,” said warden Jacobson. “Because of the nature of Tsarnaev’s crimes, though, we have decided to actually reduce the sentences of the Aryan members who were involved. They have done our prison and our country a great service, and we appreciate it immensely. They are heroes in the eyes of not only this institution, but also in the eyes of the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.”

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and his older brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev were both suspected of perpetrating the Boston Marathon bombings on April 15, 2013. The bombings killed three people and reportedly injured as many as 264 others.  Shortly after the FBI named the two suspects and released images of them, the two brothers reportedly killed an MIT police officer and carjacked an SUV in a shootout with police. During the shootout, the elder brother, Tamerlan was captured but was killed when his brother drove over him with the SUV. On the evening of April 20, 2013, the wounded Dzhokhar was found unarmed and hiding in a boat on a trailer in Watertown, Massachusetts.

On January 30, 2014, United States Attorney General Eric Holder announced that the federal government would seek the death penalty against Tsarnaev. The trial had just begun on January 5, 2015, as Tsarnaev pleaded not guilty to all thirty charges filed against him.
