"Believe me, I don't want to just bomb people..."
Ben Carson: I Wouldn't Bomb ISIS Oil Truck Drivers, I'd Just Warn Them They'll Die
"Believe me, I don't want to just bomb people," he told a crowd in Keene, New Hampshire, this weekend.
Instead, Carson has found a better way: You just tell those people driving those trucks that they’re going to get bombed if they drive those trucks.
“I would just say, ‘Hey, guys, any truck coming out of there is getting bombed. So if you don’t want your people to die, don’t put them in the truck.’ You know, that makes a lot more sense to me,” Carson explained.
So, to wit, Carson doesn't agree with how the Obama administration is dealing with ISIS oil truck drivers. But he also doesn't believe that these truck drivers should be capriciously bombed. So, he's going to give them a friendly heads up.
