The mark of a true man is one that can accept ugliness, unideal moral behavior. and micro-stupidity as a fact of life, yet understand the innerworkings of such and use them to achieve the maximum possible greater good for humanity. "And then I realized they were stronger than we. Because they could stand that these were not monsters. These were men.trained cadres. These men who fought with their hearts, who had families, who had children, who were filled with love,but they had the strength,the strength... to do that. If I had ten divisions of those men our troubles here would be over very quickly. You have to have men who are moral... and at the same time who are able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling... without passion,without judgment. Because it's judgment that defeats us. "
That quote it says is to do what is necessary takes sacrifice, even if it means your soul.
So for you urban snobs, left/right wing religious idiots, and self serving intellectual "elites," You score 0 points witht the rest of us who weren't born into circumstances of being rich, elite.

Yikes! You cannot defend that which is wrong by cloaking it in necessity, turning men into brainwashed sheep may produce a mighty army but it will not protect each soul from the consequences of immoral acts. Judgement translates to choices and free will mandates that every choice has a consequence. A person cannot be moral and kill without feeling...in war, we take life least ours be taken yet it should haunt us forever, otherwise our very existence is meaningless...life is about choices, love and pain, there is no escape from that and only a fool tries to minimize or justify that which can not be justified!
