Disagree with him all you want, but at least get your facts straight.

Leaving aside your stupidity involving the term "mercenaries", you are the one who needs to get his "facts straight".

Was it seeking profit, a sin to many liberals and socialists, or was it helping their fellow man? It sounds like they were making a living.

Somehow when a liberal or socialist does it with a book deal, like with Hilldabeast or Richard Clarke, it's not profit. Some government employees are immune from the sin of making a profit. I guess they work for free. Same with journalists, they probably don't get paychecks.

Why didn't these former soldiers have more weapons?
