Reminds me of what Lenin said.
"Capitalists are no more capable of self-sacrifice than a man is capable of lifting himself up by his own bootstraps."
From BBC News:
US troops 'refused Iraq mission'
US convoys have been a main target of attacks by insurgents
The US military has confirmed it is investigating allegations that members of a reserve US army unit in Iraq refused to undertake a convoy mission.
The unit involved is responsible for transporting food, water and fuel for US-led forces, a top US official said.
Up to 19 soldiers from the unit based near Talil in southern Iraq allegedly failed to carry out their orders.
I miss Abbadon. Self-sacrifice = suicide. That's why the Soviet Union crumbled, starved, stagnated & lost the cold war. However, self-sacrifice with machine guns trained on the backs of the vodka-infused workers defeated the Nazis in Russia.
