::INSERT SWEAR WORDS::

(Trigger warning. I never give trigger warnings, SO BE FUCKING WARNED, ALL RIGHT?)

What the fuck?

No, really: WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK!?!


...people do some fucked up shit in war. (Not to mention in the name of God.)

For one second, I was able to peak past the horror and go, "Wow, that is devastatingly effective." Then I went back to being horrified. Whattheshitshitshitshitshit!?!

It's a brilliant bit of psychology. The sheer audacity of it makes you almost admire it--kinda like the Eddie Izzard bit:
Pot killed 1.7 million people. We can’t even deal with that! You know, we think if somebody kills someone, that’s murder, you go to prison. You kill 10 people, you go to Texas, they hit you with a brick, that’s what they do. 20 people, you go to a hospital, they look through a small window at you forever. And over that, we can’t deal with it, you know? Someone’s killed 100,000 people. We’re almost going, "Well done! You killed 100,000 people? You must get up very early in the morning. I can’t even get down the gym! Your diary must look odd: "Get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death –lunch- death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower..."

Not admire, really. Appreciate that this must work extremely well, sure...

Ah, Eddie Izzard, so wise in the way of things.
