Whip Slagcheek posted:That's basically what it reads like. I'm not discounting his story, by many accounts Bergdahl sounds like a loving moron that deserved what he got, but the timing and choice of venue for his story is odd and you can smell the Obongo permeating from the jump. Yeah, same. I got the douche-chills just reading what this insufferable manchild wrote.

Because there are losses while hunting talibs every year, and I don't imagine we wouldn't have been hunting them regardless? They may have been killed regardless of whether or not they were searching for this guy. However, he did 'disappear' and they were killed while searching for him. Casimir Radon posted:Unfortunately he's got the "Suffering must make him a good person" going for him, ala John McCain (Who is nowhere near as much of a shitbag make no mistake). Yeah, McCain sure was a shitbag when refused to be repatriated early despite regular torture. What a loving turd. vains fucked around with this message at 16:08 on Jun 2, 2014 |

Casimir Radon posted:McCain wouldn't have gotten into the academy or graduated without daddy to smooth things over. He crashed 2 planes before getting shot down, again smoothed over by daddy. When he got out of Vietnam he promptly divorced his first wife (Who got a sweetheart deal apparently) and married a beer heiress who could finance his political career. His political career has been douchy as gently caress but continues to bank on his being a POW. I already said Bergdahl and McCain were related in the loosest of terms. How are all these faggoty words from DND remotely relevant to some dude that likely walked off his FOB?

:masterstroke: There is no recovering from the sperg smiley. I don't think anyone said that Bergdahl was a good person. You just went off on some retarded tangent about McCain(because you're a retarded DND human being) when you saw the opportunity.

Victor Vermis posted:I was in Al Anbar in late '08 to early '09 and this sounds right. I couldn't tell ya who was suicide bombing who but between the oodles of sleepy payroll'd militia watchmen, and lack of any clear objective for us since SOFA confined us more or less to the COP and IP stations, there was a feeling that absolutely nothing was going on. My whole battalion had 1 'firefight' in 2008 where some especially retarded Iraqis decided to shoot AKs from a pickup truck at LAVs.

Flaky posted:I was watching an interview by frontline with Robert Fisk from at least before 2006 where he reads an excerpt of one of his books which I will transcribe here, as it seems relevant to the current discussion: 1-Nobody who is actually out there doing the shooting/killing could recite the warrior ethos if asked. 2-Words like disciplined, professional, 'army values' and the like indicate that obeying the laws governing armed conflict are important. Its cool that D&D fags think they know anything about anything because they read some article written by an ultra-leftwing dicksuck or saw it on Vice.

Flaky posted:Is it really necessary to point out that the various creeds say more about the desired messaging of the leadership than of individual soldiers? I mean this is basically explicitly stated in the article. Can you quote the creed and bold the sections that encourage the commission of war crimes(as defined by the Laws of Armed Conflict and not your homo dnd circle jerk)? (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Please hurry before I commit some atrocities. I wasn't familiar with the warrior's ethos previously and I feel myself growing more bloodthirsty by the second. Thanks in advance.

Acebuckeye13 posted:Speaking as someone who lurks this thread and D&D, agree with both in some areas, disagree in others, I'd say it's pretty wrongheaded in its examination and condemnation of the area, both from a recent and historical perspective. It takes the worst aspects of exceedingly bloodthirsty militias, tries to apply those aspects to an overall "Them", which apparently encompass every person from the Himalayas to the Gulf of Adan, and then suggests that we should attempt to indiscriminately bomb every man, woman, and child living across that area. Ignoring the sheer logistical impossibilities and sheer inhumanity of such a task, I think it does display the sadly tragic mindset of a person who is incredibly angry at the seemingly senseless loss of life and constant conflict that embroils the region (Even though, technically speaking, neither Somalia or Afghanistan is actually in the Middle East), even though they have little understanding of the root causes of their conflicts. leading to such statements as Please do not encourage him to post more.

genderstomper58 posted:On the other hand, a $9,000 bonus for a senior executive is laughably small so I dunno I don't see the big deal about it heh That's like a 6% bonus going off the median pay in their scale. Figure it skews more towards the low end and it still only goes up to 7%. That is indeed poo poo. On the other hand, the VA is poo poo and I'm glad I don't need them for anything other than the last year of my GI Bill.

A few, the title was only officially abolished in Turkey in 1920. Those guys never had a real strong claim to the title and were barely recognized outside the Ottoman Empire.
