May I refer you to Chesty Puller, Commandant of the Marine Corps WW II

"Grab them by the short hairs and their hearts and minds shall follow"

My question about this thread is that considering all the atroicties committed in the past by whomever, here we have a case where it happens to two people and it might have been by Americans* and the thread gets a lot of activity...

.... I had never heard of this particular source....but had it been WND no one would have taken it to be legit without other confirmatioin..... see what I mean....

now, let's take this example....
someone posting on these boards who naturally doesn't believe in violence, etc...as oppossed to an Israeli Army member who saw part of his family wiped out by a suicide bomber or a bomg planted on a bus...

funny thing, the guys who came over to 'Nam questioning the war were the ones who turned the most savage and bloodthirsty

let's look at it this way.... a few years back two Aussies were caught trying to smuggle dope through Malaysia... they were hung....sionce then, there haven't been too many stories of anyone trting to smuggle dope through Malaysia....

well, I started the thread about Amercians being murdered by Colombian rebels, and you didn't bother to reply to it, either. And I think there are still Americans being held hostage by the rebels.

The biggest danger when fighting Satan is becoming Satan yourself.

First, I was responding to cenimo, not Wolseley. My post clearly shows that I am quoting him.

Second, yes, a cop shooting a murderer while trying to arrest him is different than the original murder, but a cop beating a prisoner to death is murder. The prisoner no longer poses an immediate threat to anyone. Besides, some things are inherently evil and no end can justify them. Torture is one of these things.
