tbh, I wouldn't want to blow shit up for the US govt but I totally would for Exxon Mobile.
 
@Lurker, I and the broader community would like the news forum to be an inclusive place for opinions local and abroad. Please, stop bullying our international commenters off the board.
 
I'm using war as a business to get elected so I can end war as a business!

Or a Gundam 00 reference, take your pick.

You can't bully Australians because there's no limit to the level of abuse which is acceptable to level upon them.
 
There's a very good reason mercenaries fell out of fashion around the time that the ability to mobilize large amounts of people became possible for nation-states. Mercenaries are expensive, can be bought by foreign powers, have a disincentive to actually fight other mercenaries (It's kind of hilarious to look up the antics of Italian mercenaries in the early modern era) and have a rather disturbing tendency to commit atrocities and war crimes.

This is absolutely retarded on exponential levels.

This is you. You can't bully Australians because this is you, you max-level pedostached autistic French super-mario-looking motherfucker.
 
I'm not surprised by this move from Trump.

I want to see what happens when its revealed he owns stock in one of the merc companies.
 
PMCs actually prevent their employed soldiers from raping sand niggers so needless to say I'm against this.
 
War has changed. It's no longer about nations, ideologies or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines. War, and its consumption of life, has become a well-oiled machine.
