A soldier's job is to kill the enemy, or, as Patton also said, "The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his." The sooner liberals understand the true meaning of war, the sooner we can make the "other bastard" die for his country.

If making a terrorist wear a pair of women's panties on his head will help save one innocent life by gaining information on future terrorist acts, it is worth the effort. Victoria's Secret and Fredrick's of Hollywood should contribute panties to the war effort. Maybe we would get a few more confessions.

I think General Mattis would agree. I know General Patton would.

This is just great, direct and powerful!

Someone said in an email to me....

If connecting a car battery to a prisoner's balls will save one US GI's life, I only have two things to say...

Red is positive!
Green is negative!

I received this from a lawyer today:

"The detainees could be:

1. Enemy combatants interned as POW's

2. Enemy irregular combatants/spies subject to summary execution or whatever

3. Terrorists or criminals under arrest and held to answer (eventually) for some criminal offense"

I replied that door number 2 sounded correct to me. IMHO, this should be their status and that they are merely enjoying a generous, BUT temporary reprieve.

Number 2 all the way. Do whatever is necessary to get any information we can from them, and then one shot each in the head.

"We're not going to just shoot the sons-of-b*tches, we're going to rip out their living G--damned guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks. We're going to murder those lousy Hun c---suckers by the bushel-f-ing-basket. War is a bloody, killing business."

- George S. Patton

If Patton were alive today, he would have so much slapping around to do that his arm would be in a sling.

you should read his biography, very interesting. Patton flunked his first year at West Point and had to remediate. Contrary to public opinion he was not a mystic who believed in reincarnation, but had a passion for military history and its lessons. Few also know that his family owned mount Palimar where the famous telescope today resides.

I enjoyed the article and found the quote from Patton and the opening state ment about Liberals and terrorists to have amazing insight.

I find myself trying to see this insight in the words of Christ or in Proverbs.

I hear in my ear Pastors I have known over the years belittling things like fasting, and prayer. or a person being spoken to by the Holy Spirit or God.

And I have always thought of it as a personal dislike or prejudice, something that these people had been offended over long ago and proabaly no longer remember why.

This idea that we can denounce and speak against something not only from personal prejudice or from something created by ordered reason (A teaching), but that it can be our soul speaking out against what it lacks. I find this intriguing.

And the media would be punch-drunk!

What, if anything, does any of that have to do with:
Putting 3 rounds of good ol' American made 5.56mm center of mass in a rag head....
Putting a 120mm shell into the center of a group of rag heads....
Putting a few dozen 500 lb bombs in the neighborhood of a bunch of rag heads.....
Making a whole nation of rag heads glow in the dark....?

This idea that we can denounce and speak against something....can be our soul speaking out against what it lacks. I find this intriguing.

BTW, you're not limited to only Christ's words, or the proverbs, are you? I have been intrigued by this phenomenon as well. A way to approach understanding is to perhaps ask; "What does the soul lack?" (Jesus!) Then there is guilt with the awareness of our lack - our sin? So denouncing comes more from (repressed, perhaps) knowledge of one's own sin....ok, 'lack of goodness'.

That is why it is common for hypocrites to regularly see hypocrisy in others, liars to see others as liars, etc. It is our nature to blame others for what we ourselves are guilty of.

The whole story of Satan's rebellion is the perfect example of this. He is "the accuser of the brethren"! He accuses God before the angels and all the created beings that He (God) is unjust, and sells 1/3 of the angels on the idea that it could be done better his way. This, from the "father of lies"!

Clarence Darrow, "Attorney for the Damned", made a living out of the idea that the crimes his defendants committed, could have been committed by any one of them (the jury). I know that since the understanding of the sin of adultery was magnified by Jesus, that likewise, I am therefore guilty of murder (and all the others too). Peter said that even the righteous shall scarcely be saved.
