Perhaps someone wiser than I knows why our snipers go for an instantaneous kill?
Why do we give our enemies what they most desire, a quick painless transition from a third world muslim hell-hole to a whorehouse-in-the-sky with fountains of milk and honey, and fully stocked with young boys and virgins for their every sexual pleasure and depravity?
Abdul envies Achmed’s luck when he sees Achmed’s head vanish.
Wouldn’t we be better served if Abdul had to hear hours of Achmed’s agonized screams and moans and curses, while Abdul and Akbar try to save him (even though they know he will never be whole even if he survives).
Wouldn’t Achmed be a less enthused jihadi if he knows that at any instant allah could will a sniper’s bullet to shred his love toys, give him a slow, lingering and humiliating death, followed by a one way ticket to an eternal paradise he no longer has the cojones to enjoy?
Aim small, guys...
It goes with the territory of being better than the savages we fight.
Is the mission to kill the enemy or to torture him from long distance? Blow the guy's head off and move to the next target. No need to be ghoulish about it.
there job is to take out the enemy. there have been several good shows on our snipers on TV lately. They work as a team one gives coordinates, wind etc so the sniper can make necessary adjustments to where to shoot. they shoot where the target will be when the bullet gets to him. very interesting. Actual film as its going down.
