What Is A War Criminal?
What kind of victory is it when someone is left defeated? What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy. What is a war criminal? Was not war itself a crime against God and humanity, and, therefore, were not all those who sanctioned, engineered and conducted wars, war criminals? The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. Non-cooperation with evil is a sacred duty.
— Mahatma Ghandi

If US Army soldiers (or any nations' soldiers, for that matter) get killed attempting to save "contractors" there will be hell to pay. Merc-work is high risk, and highly paid. If they get caught, tortured and killed, that goes with the territory. And that is the true price of American Rugged Individualism. C'mon you gutless Libertarians and Neo-conservatives. Put up or shut up. Quit your cushy,corporate bureaucrat jobs, all you faux-Capitalists. Get in the game! Take your nut-cutting, corporate tactics and paint ball strategies to the real battlefield--IRAQ. C'mon gutless patriots, the brown people and poor people in America are dying for us. It's time for all of you to put up or shut up. Blackwater USA, Bechtel and KBR need you!

Correction: "US Military personnel," not "US Army soldiers."
