I guess, not really your style, but in fact it's so much more than an action story... the political background is quite interesting and most of all the author, how he feels for the people he writes about. he's a journalist who knows, he can't get the truth published, so he wrapps it up as an action story. Anyway, in the middle of that battle all of a sudden a pair of white doves appears. Imagine that! the soldiers involved take it as a sign, that they then might make it out alive, before that point they were pretty much f¤cked and not much was pointing to them getting through this unharmed...<br />and then one day, or rather evening a few hundred kilometres north of the polarcircle we also saw, what looked like white doves, right in the middle of nowhere, appearing in front of our headlights... but I guess, they were in fact snow chickens or something like that, even though they look like white doves...<br /><br />But back to your post:<br />very good point, that you make here; if they still want people to sign up to serve the country, then it would be a little better to consider getting to the real guilty ones and not just to those who were following orders!<br /><br />And it also amazes me how some absolutely disgusting cruelty usually goes unpanished, whereas some soldiers almost get accused of war crinmes, just for carrying a gun (you might wanna check up on Lt. Col. Tim Collins' story and how he was framed.)<br /><br />they're always very quick in finding scapegoats... but i guess, nothing is gonna change, while the money of certain supporters still rules...Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13314160080172957748noreply@blogger.com
