Re: [GZG] Interesting mercenary idea

Well, thank you for contributing, but this really is the sort of flamey
reply I was hoping to avoid. There are a thousand and one ways to say
exactly what you just said without the obvious bias and distasteful
wording.
I respect your view and opinion, just don't shove it down my throat in
the
place where I go to have fun all the while heaping a big helping of
stink on
top of it.

Today's UN doesn't have a military either.  And when they DO conduct
military operations, it is more likely to be with Third World
uniformed thugs working for cash and running child prostitution rings
on the side than it is to be anything professional.  Oh, and even if
you do convince First World militaries to contribute, they put some
politically correct jackass in charge so the "peacekeepers" are stuck
basically videotaping the murders and rapes rather than doing anything
productive.

Suffice it to say that the UNSC in the GZGverse is more or less
utterly unlike today's UN.
