  1. Yes he’s a monster
  2. The Protocols did what they fucking were supposed to, which was make him a monster.

At least i’m hearing he’s feeling bad about it, instead of yelling about doing his job or some shit like a cop would. Yeah

    the crux of this entire piece is "this guy did his job, and now hes sad -- lets feel bad for him."

    i suppose him feeling bad that he murdered a father in front of his 6 year old child for the crime of driving a car is preferable to him bragging about it and demanding praise, but frankly the difference is irrelevant to me. if this guy doesn't use his trauma to save future lives and to protest the corporate death machine he uncritically served so he could live out a "Call of Duty" type fantasy, I don't give a shit about him. but to be fair, i have friends who are ex-military who did tours in Iraq and I know that arc takes some time.
