<<The Nazis didn't used to wear strings of ears like the USA troops in Vietnam apparently did. >> Right, go back 40 years. I doubt that happened because of the smell of rotting flesh. But lets take another look at the US war machine. Jeeze a lot of money has been spent on .... precision bombing. Hit the target and leave the innocents alone. I know, blah blah about the innocents that were killed. Would you rather see nukes or a carpet bombing? We could do that. See, we in the US try not to kill civilians. Take killed and wounded because of that. Now people like you want to compare the US to Jenghis Kahn, and his slaughter everyone. Keep it up, the people of the US may want to adopt the the policy you promote. It won't be pretty.

<"Tiger Force atrocities began with the torture and execution of prisoners in the field, then escalated to the routine slaughter of unarmed farmers, elderly people, even small children. As one former sergeant told the Blade, "It didn't matter if they were civilians. If they weren't supposed to be in an area, we shot them. If they didn't understand fear, I taught it to them." > That looks very much like a definition of TERRORISM to me. Osama says that foreigners are not supposed to be in Saudi Arabia, or Israel, so he blows them up, or shoots them. What heroic beauty, what symmetry of movement, what matching philosophies. Mq
