  • Dersh: shedding a tear for mercenaries?

    Since they're "doing God's work" as I'm sure Mr. Prince of Blackwater would love to have you believe?

    OK, yeah. Did the "liberal media" cause our loss in Viet Nam, also? You seem like the type to buy the whole hook-line-sinker, no matter how absurd it is. Oswald acted alone?

    I suppose you feel that the military didn't commit a(nother) war crime by using white phosphorous on a civilian population in Fallujah in retribution over Blackwater's four dead contractors, correct?

    What prevents Bush43 and Cheney and the whole NeoCon gang from facing war crimes charges? Invading Iraq appears to have been on the agenda for quite some time before 9/11/01 -- and all of Bush43's lies hinge on the cover up of 9/11/01.

    What's one more massacre either way? When you're a short-hair suit-wearer with God on your side there are no war crimes. Is that about the size of it, Dersh? "Kill them all -- God knows his own"?

    IMHO the only good mercenary is a dead mercenary.
