War is a clash of wills. The protection of life, rights and Freedom is the only moral justification for engaging in war. Anything else, especially socialist goals, amounts to subjugation and killing to gain substantial control over the Free will of other persons against their wishes.

I understand you are concerned about and talking about socialism. However, that's not the basis of the post. This Canadian sniper was meeting his national commitment and serving in the same conflict against terror - evil as we have defined it - as our soldiers. His country is playing some sort of stupid game with this man when his combat order involved effective destruction of the enemy - which is exactly what he did - and then something more refined is expected in his dealing with the chaplin.

What standard are they holding this sniper soldier to? He follows his orders and fulfills his contract with Canada. I'm glad he fought on our side. I'm angry because he's being held to some sort of behavior that isn't compatible with the demands of his combat job.

"What standard are they holding this sniper soldier to?"

I think he's been an excellent soldier. Canada's a socialist country. The story gives 2 key points that indicate MstCpl Perry has a problem simply because he's in a socialist countries Army. The first is they suspect he had something to do with a sign on a deceased jihadist that said, "#$&@ terrorism".

The socialists up there don't allow that kind of sensitivity. The "stress" debriefing incident indicates the socialist command's expectation is that it's soldiers are expected to break down and succumb to severe mental anguish at the conclusion of their assigned duty. The chaplain must of insisted he cooperate with the psycho babble treatment. MstCpl Perry realized he was a well disciplined and capable soldier and that if he went along with it, he would only be encouaging and supporting the crap. So he told the sensitivity guy off.

MstCpl Perry's stance against the socialist bozos up there is definetely good for the discipline and moral of all the soldiers Canada has under arms that cherish Life, rights and Freedom. He's got fortitude and stood up to both the Islamic and the touchy feely jihadists. At any rate, the only folks against the man are the jihadists, and they suck.

If he put the sign up, I think it was an entirely proper display of respect for the deceased, the deceased's life works, and would have been good for discipline and morale.
