Reply #50: They seem to go to great lengths to conceal US casualties, in my view [View All]

they are being overcautious. Most of the expendable resources are recruited from lower income sectors, and many from populations that are considered undesirable before they join, and disposable after.

Foreign nationals who "die as a result of ongoing military operations" are seen by most voters as a positive sign that the war on terror is making progress, and by many who consider themselves "liberal" as "tragic but unavoidable."

There is a great deal of support in the latter group for bribing other countries to join the US in commiting war crimes, usually for a share of American petroleum resources located there, and related revenue opportunities, and that will go a long way toward assuaging any misgivings domestically, and if successful, will certainly diminish anti-American sentiment in the leadership of those nations who accept the offer.

The change on the ground for the victims will of course, be limited to the uniform and.or hat color of the individuals who kill their children, but I see little indication that this is a concern to the bulk of voters of either party.
