Kim took notice of the stupidity of some NATO rules

the other day , and here's more on it. Also on the idiot general who was trashing our snipers for taking out a Taliban commander.

On the bright side, the Poles seem to have done damn well:
"Eighteen elite Special Operations snipers hid inside the city, picking targets and reporting back on enemy movements. Polish snipers working alongside U.S. forces had been given less restrictive rules of engagement by their government, said a senior U.S. intelligence official with direct access to information about them. “The Poles could kill people we couldn’t,” he said. For example, he said, American snipers couldn’t shoot unless they saw a weapon in the target’s hands, while the Poles were allowed to fire at anyone on the streets of Fallujah holding a cell phone after 8:00 p.m. “They had an eighty percent kill rate at six hundred yards,” the intelligence official said. “That’s incredible range.”
Obviously, they're not listening to the socialist morons of the EU on the 'proper' way to fight terrorists.
