Post #314,923 by boxley 10/1/09 1:18:26 PM Reply	we is people just like the valiant canadians et al the politicians can look steely eyed at the cameras and swear it wont happen on their watch then appoint some golem to run black ops on the QT that would horrify the politician. Problem is that folks that get caught do time so when checey asked his golem to get busy, they said give that order to me in writing. That is the difference between today and folks before 2001 http://whatreallyhap...ICS/UN/peace.html Nor was the Belgian component of the UNÂs "Operation Restore Hope" uniquely barbarous. Three members of a now-disbanded elite Canadian paratroop regiment were tried and convicted of criminal charges in the beating death of a 16-year-old Somali boy named Shidane Arone; the three "peacekeepers" had been photographed smiling beside the bloody corpse of the boy, whose hands had been bound. The incident prompted the creation of a Canadian government commission to review that nationÂs military and its involvement in "peacekeeping" missions; however, the inquiry foundered on the obstructionism of political and military bodies and produced what Canadian critics call an incomplete and inadequate report.

The people that did it went to jail, except for the guy who tried to hang himself and brain-damaged himself so badly that he is to all intents and purposes a toddler. The colonel in charge of the regiment was cashiered for the obvious and terrible breakdown in discipline in his regiment. The regiment itself was disbanded; despite it's storied history, the murder of Arone was considered such a vile and ignominious act and indicative of an absolute breakdown of discipline that the only solution was to destroy the regiment and break up the people in it. It'd be nice if the person you quote provided a link to the report, and named the people who called it incomplete and inadequate. Here's some more info about that: http://hrsbstaff.edn...omalia_affair.htm http://epe.lac-bac.g.../issue-2/0244.htm http://epe.lac-bac.g.../issue-2/0244.htm Wikipedia has a pretty good overview of all that: http://en.wikipedia....ki/Somalia_Affair
