they knew exactly who was on that copter, and this idea that they didn't want the public to see their bodies come back because they were "unidentified" smacks of evil manipulation and cruelty....

Stalin killed 1/3 of the military as he was consolidating power.

Hitler overtook the regular military echelon and demolished it in large part.

Tyrants must eliminate threats, especially those who would be the most lethal.

Pentagon-level echelon = politics. Many now are toadies. The same cannot be said for men in the field, including 1,000s of men and women. 0bama is trying to oust the opposition and put in ‘his’ cadres.
