You haven't seen American military power yet. All of you've seen is us holding back, cause the TV crew is looking. I was on a plane to Cali, sitting next to a guy going to Ft. Pendleton. He was in PsOps -- told me some great stories. One was about Somalia. All you heard on TV was the American getting dragged through the streets. You didn't hear about the next day, when we went in to get some payback: guy told me we fired so many shots, the soldiers gun barrels melted. Killed about 200 civies for payback. Another guy told me the true story about the first gulf war: on TV, you saw pictures of Iraqis surrendering to TV crews. In the radio room, my friend told me stories of Iraqis walking out of bunkers only to be gunned down. So, if you want to get all pissed off, get REALLY pissed off, cause the truth is 500 times worse than your theories, but don't be mistaken that what's going on Iraq is because we couldn't massacre the fuck out of them. We're holding back, trying to be nice. The whole European "we've evolved beyond war" is an illusion - I can't wait for the next good war you get yourselves into. It'll happen. And I'll be there calling you a baby killer. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
