Unbelievable! "It is Fun To Shoot Some People"

[Codger]

i have known one guy.. a week before he was sent overseas.. to iraq. he told me he can't wait to shoot those guys and kill those Dogs (iraqi ppl)

i was stunned..

Truth be known, he was probably scared s***less. A part of the psychology that allows soldiers to do what they have to do is convincing themselves that
the enemy is subhuman, nothing more than a target to be disposed of. To this end, all sorts of names are applied to the enemy. Dogs is one of the least offensive he could have used. I could give you the slang my father used for Germans, Japanese, or the slang I used for the North Vietnamese, or the slang used for the Arabic people, but it has no place here. General Patton had his own PR problems. Omar Bradley held him in check most of the time, but not always.
