If not entirely paranoid, you are delusional. Tell me, in what way is he "itching to start a war" with NK?

Use of mercenary forces... Our military has been neutered by rules and regulations that make winning a nearly impossible task. The objective should be achieved by whatever means necessary. If that means private contractors, so be it.

“Conform to the enemy's tactics until a favorable opportunity offers; then come forth and engage in a battle that shall prove decisive.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

"I love war" - Trump on the campaign trail. He loves the most horrendous thing ever devised by mankind.

And to the subject of mercenaries. There is no incentive to achieve the objective.

If someone is willing to pay you a regular salary to do something and they are going to pay you that salary for however long it takes to complete the job, aren't you going to put off finishing the job for as long as possible?

Your Sun Tzu quote assumes the people he is speaking to want to win the war. Mercenaries have no incentive to try to win. Their only incentive is to keep the war going for as long as possible.

This does nothing to substantiate your claim.

It's an alt of Mac we're seeing. It's an alt of an alt that can't be here because of too many alts.

[Grumpy_Polecat]

ALT! Let me see your papers...

I may be mistaken but I think that such accusations are frowned upon in these parts.

[Belva]

GP it must then be an alt of an alt of an alt's alt

In war's defense, it did end the holocaust and slavery.

Why is it so hard for a conservatives to keep their word?
Leave already!

Out of curiosity, what percentage of blacks do you think hatefully spew horribly racist and bigoted things about whites when the guards are down?

About the same. Although I probably have higher bar for what constitutes hateful, regardless of race. I don't think careless generalizations are necessarily hateful.

[Belva]

It prolly is roughly the same as the % of white racists

I'm OK with careless generalizations. I draw the line when they become demeaning or denote inferiority.
