"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Ex-Marine tells his story about US brutality

[JoZbean]

....in Iraq

By Middle East Online

Former staff sergeant Jimmy Massey explains why US faces bloody insurgency in Iraq.

"PARIS - US military training has created troops so desensitised to violence that battleground brutality in Iraq is rampant -- and has helped fuel the bloody insurgency seen there today, a new book released Thursday in France by a former Marine says.

Jimmy Massey, a former staff sergeant, said that the daily attacks now doled out to US-led forces and Iraqi civilians are "because of the brutality that the Iraqi people saw at the start of the invasion."

In his book, " Kill! Kill! Kill!", he says he and other Marines in his unit killed dozens of unarmed Iraqi civilians because of an exaggerated sense of threat, and that they often experienced sexual-type thrills doing so."

And somewhere a drunk frat boy who will be president one day is clueless about this war, and will no doubt repeat the mistakes he missed sucking on a beer bong.

2. How many returning vets

have turned to violence because they found that they liked it? The DC sniper springs to mind. Now, imagine dozens, if not hundreds of people like this in Iraq, and you can better understand why Iraqis want us gone.

4. ...and you know what happens to the Marine

who gets caught up in a kill, kill, kill frenzy? Lots of bad stuff happens to that soul. You need lots of solid psyche support. It NEVER goes away. It is evil business to send young people on a mission of patriotic duty and perhaps religious rightiousness to kill people that do not need to be killed.

The rich Cheneys and Rummys and Roves and PNACers who use stupid people like bushie and young people with patriotic stars in their eyes to do the devils work must be punished in some cosmic way eventually. It is a slime crime that offends the gods and nature and the everything.
