But there's money to be made in the replacement of war toy parts and they need a reason to replace them.

I have it on the best authority - our very own colleagues at DU - that anybody who gets snuffed by one of our Flying Death Robots had it coming to them, either because they were very, very bad (even if nobody had heard of the "terrorist" before we killed him) or because they were careless about who they chose to be in proximity to.

I read it on DU all the time, so it must be true. Anyone who says this hurts our reputation is probably a terrorist or a militant.
