That’s actually how my brain read it the first time ‘round! lol! (I wouldn’t put it past them.)

[HiTech RedNeck]

Those poor underprivileged belligerents... just like in Baltimore

[Minutemen]

Leave it to the U.S. Department of Defense to blow smoke rings up their own wazoo.

My new dictionary has updated;

“Obama administration”, to “WIMPY PUSSIES”

[kaehurowing]

How about “undocumented future immigrant.”

Unprivileged Belligerents? DOD is PC (Politically Castrated).

And we have Rita Vollmer, the Assistant Public Affairs Officer for the Forest Service at the
Shasta-Trinity National Forest in California calling illegals guarding pot farms Displaced Foreign Travelers.

Stalin would be proud of the happy face put on reality.

Belligerents is worse than malcontents in muh book.

I can deal with malcontents.

Damn; I live in trinity county and I just call them WETBACK DOPE GROWERS.

[Verginius Rufus]

What if they capture someone fighting for ISIS who is a white European convert to Islam? Would he be a “privileged enemy belligerent”?

[Retain Mike]

I came up with the term “feral psychopaths” for the same people. Evidently it was entertaining enough that a couple papers in our area published a letter on torure I wrote. I don’t suppose I should consider helping the folks at DOD with their current dilemma?

[sport]

Does this have any relevance to us?
