When did humanity become so disgusting?
To live a good, rich life, surely all you need is a nice home, some nice cars and a couple of holidays.Not prostitutes, porno and plastic surgery (among others)

For anyone who didnt read full article. . .
Also included were university textbooks for his daughter, pornographic videos for his son, plastic surgery for his wife, a burial plot for his mother, prostitutes for his employees, and, for him, a $100,000 American-flag belt buckle encrusted with rubies, sapphires and diamonds.

Wait, you're mad at THIS guy? Not at the politicians who make a killing by going to war? Not the people who orchestrated a trillion-dollar crime that has killed a million civilians? Not the soldiers themselves who gladly murder for money with no thought to the loss of innocent life? You're mad at one prick with a belt buckle? Get your priorities sorted mate, it's a nice belt buckle and selling armor to the government isn't a crime. He should be made to pay back the expenses and nothing more. The real criminals here are the government and the voters who brazenly support murder and destruction.

“Not the soldiers themselves who gladly murder for money with no thought to the loss of innocent life?”
I know there are a very few soldiers that enjoy killing. I happen to know one who does. ONE! He is a psychopath that has found a place in the military. He follows his orders and gets to have fun killing. I do not want him for my neighbor. I do not want to support him in prison. However, when he does his duty he does it well, just without heart and that is not the concern of MY army. He IS a good killing machine, we need good killing machines, and that makes him a GOOD soldier and a GOOD American.
Yes, I said MY ARMY!!! I am a US citizen, so those are MY men and women that are fighting and DIEING over there! I cannot contain myself so I am going to say it! F your stupid assumption that our troopers are cold blooded murderers! They are doing their duty for their country, a duty they made a solemn promise to uphold. 99.9% of them do not want to harm anyone. They promised to take orders, even those that will lead them to their own deaths, and do far too often. Or do American body bags make you smile?
My relative is being shot at about now, and he would not hurt a fly if he did not have too. I love my GI-Joe! I love MY troops, and if you don’t then get the Hell out of our country. That is unless you are already in some US hating slum country hiding in a cave with a bunch of unwashed illiterate superstitious real pathological murderers, like Osama. And if you are, then I say good, stay there and get amebic dysentery.
Tell me what cave it is? I will fly the psychopath a kite. - 1 year ago

Because all he did was defraud his company... we all exaggerate expenses claims, and if we could get away with it on a grand scale most of us would. I agree that he owes back the money he claimed, but to be mad at him is absurd unless you're is employer. The people to be furious at are the politicians. I personally love that he bought his daughter a completely kick-ass barmitzvah... I'd rather see the money spent on a happy day than used to drop more bombs on innocent people.

Ezrierin, you write like a charicature of stupid America. If a person gets paid to kill strangers, they're a murderer. "Your" men and women are psychopaths who should be brought home and, if their crimes can be proven, prosecuted as murderers. If it was your family wedding that was being bombed, or your school that was being shot up, you would agree entirely.

No American Hater. I would not agree entirely. A soldier killing in a war and a cold blooded murderer are two entirely different things. If my country is attacked by an enemy soldier I will kill the son of a bitch. But I will not call him a murderer, unless it is your friends in Al-Qaeda that killed 5000 Americans at 9-11. Do you think they were brave?
But I bet you cheered at that. At least admit it? You are not a coward are you? YOU HATE AMERICA, DON’T YOU???
No, I believe you will not answer those questions. I do not believe you have the courage to admit your convictions.
Civilized societies put captured soldiers in detention until wars end. Not like your buddies in their caves that chop heads off and sing to their F’ing gods as they do.
Come on now, where is your cave Al-Qaeda? - 1 year ago

Oh, now you are prefacing your sweeping remark. And who are "The ones" in your opinion. Lets get specific, because you said, "the soldiers themselves who gladly murder for money with no thought to the loss of innocent life?" But you did say, ""Your" men and women (ALL US SOLDIERS) are psychopaths who should be brought home and, if their crimes can be proven, prosecuted as murderers."
I can accept an apology that you did not mean EVERY soldier pal. But short of that, I hope you stop breathing soon. So what is it? Do you admit you misspoke? Or do you think all American soldiers are cold blooded murderers? Answer the question? Do not chicken out? Are ALL American soldiers cold blooded murderers? Tell us what you think?

There's no contradiction: if a crime can be proven then the criminal should be prosecuted. If an American soldier kills an innocent person then they should be prosecuted as a murderer. This applies to every soldier equally. It is logical that if a person who accepts a job where they will be killing for money, and then proceeds to go about that job with any degree of enjoyment, that said person is a psychopath who is gladly murdering for money.
All of these people are far worse than the contractor in question, who has simply exploited an opportunity offered by his employer. Comparing his 2-bit crime to the crime of a soldier in Iraq or Afghanistan allows us to realise how absurd it is that these people are angry at him.

Of course war is immoral but war is human. To think that all the world would be able to drop their weapons and stop fighting is a laughable fantasy. Here in the real world humans are greedy corrupt and immoral. War on the other hand is very profitable... there will always be an ample supply of people willing to kill for money or other reasons.

You changed your story a bit to CYA. Unfortunately your former words are still up for all to see. HOWEVER, but, and on the other hand, I will honestly give you credit for stepped up and admitting to everyone you really do believe that every single paid US trooper (they are all paid) who kills anyone in a war, should be prosecuted under law as a cold blooded murderer.
You have a right to your opinion and you expressed it. You hate Americans!
Now here is my Free Speech protected opinion. I love my troops. I love those fine Americans. I love my GI relative fighting in Afghanistan right now. I would die for them. I would kill for them repeatedly until my flesh falls from my bones. I only wish we could meet in that field of battle. I believe in the Rules of Engagement, and therefore there and ONLY there I would bleed to meet you. You hate my troops and to me that makes you their enemy, the enemy of America, my enemy IN WAR! And there in the field of battle I would have you. Have no doubt and do fear, for there are others like me who will pop you in battle and cheer like the Devil. Please, do not go to Afghanistan and fight us. Put down your weapon if you are there. You simply do not know what you are doing.
Anyone who hates American Troopers should be killed. I would have no problems using my bare hands to kill them myself. And I would honestly feel no remorse, for those are my beloved soldiers. I would probably feel curious about my behavior, the what drives someone to kill in the name of justice thing. But otherwise I would catch a cold beer after I was done. YES, when it comes to our enemies, I am the worst of psychopaths. I will eat the haunches of our enemies if that is the only food source and I will salt and pepper it real fine while it sputters on a spit so I can fill up to kill our enemies again.
I sincerely hope you ARE just a passive victim of a privileged life where the gleeful feeling to murder has never touched and blacked you own heart forever sleeping and waiting to be reawakened. Because those feeling never leave my friend.
I do not believe you know what real hate really is. You egg it on, but I do not think you have a clue how it can bite you in the ass and so happily kill you. I hope my behavior and my absolute honesty shocks you into the reality of hate, and gets you to change your mind about confronting hate born of righteous indignation. I really am death and you do not want to prod me or my kind. I can control myself here and on neutral turf, but others are not like me. I hope you feel cold now. I even pray you do, for your sake.
If you do not change your mind, you run the real risk of expressing your hatred for American troops and probably get yourself killed.
Personally, I will not shed a tear, unless in the last second you repent of your mistaken beliefs. I hope that if that sad day comes to you, that in your last moment of clarity, you will get it. Hate begets hate, and hate kills. But what a waist of your life. I am sorry you feel the way you do. Reconsider, please. Salem. - 1 year ago

fun_size, war only occurs because of ruling power. We can debate whether or not the emergence and domination of ruling power in human society was a result of our nature as a species, but it seems clear to me that in 2010 we are mostly mature enough to see that kings and phareohs were never necessary to society and were merely the dominant power during their reign. I believe the same will ultimately be seen to be true of all dominant powers, right down to good ol' democratic government.
War is only profitable for the dominant powers; in an anarchist society there could be no war, as each murderer would be punished for their crimes without a government to protect them.
