Brian Cloughley: Moronic Marine Killers.

Is this how they keep their honor clean? "The Pentagon has quietly shifted combat troops and warships to the Middle East after the top American commander in the region warned that he needed additional forces to deal with Iran and other potential threats, US officials said. Marine Corps Gen. James Mattis, who heads US Central Command, won White House approval for the deployments late last year after talks with the government in Baghdad broke down over keeping US troops in Iraq, but the extent of the Pentagon moves is only now becoming clear. Actually, it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling. You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's hell of a lot of fun to shoot them." General James Mattis, February 3, 2005. The fact that a psychotic moron like James Mattis is now chief of the US military's Central Command is a depressing indication that Washington prefers smart-ass murderous dum-dums to intelligent life. Someone who finds it fun to kill people because they "aint got no manhood" is seriously disturbed, and should not be in command of a pretzel stand. The appalling Mattis, that piece of perambulating filth, whose official photograph bear an uncanny, terrible and probably intentional resemblance to that of the disloyal, dishonorable and disastrous General Douglas MacArthur, is quite simply brainless beyond belief.
