this has nothing to do with politics.
Its the culture of wussification in this country.
In the context of this article I read that in 2008 a marine was filmed in Iraq throwing a puppy off a cliff. he was removed from duty. he can go and kill our enemies, but puppies are off limits.
I read tons of miliary novels. Just got done reading brothers in battle, best of friends about Bill Guarnier and Babe Heffron. Famous members of the Band of Brothers, 101st Airborne. They stated multiple times in the book that the shot the SS everytime, even when the surrendered. thats against every rule of war, but they did it and Im sure most did. Imagine today, that would be captured on some iphone and broadcast around the word, st criox man would have been disgraced and say these boys should be removed and courtmartialed.
