The number is beyond counting - nearly all its acts are premeditated, and nearly all are cold blooded, with drone strikes surely being the ultimate. But we call cold blooded murder "taking out", and a 'strategy', and never question its necessity or morality. <br />It is hard to think of a more brutal and callous murder than that of Moammar Qadhafi, by faceless facilitators in the West who watched it all unfold - no doubt. <br /><br />Good on you John also for spelling out what OUR murders really are - acts of 'violent Western fanatics'. <br /> <br /><br />John Hilleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072819649049077782noreply@blogger.com
