re: #283 endotoxin

Thank you! We have a winner! Why some people keep on insisting that the terrorists, insurgents, or jihadi freedom fighters are the same as uniformed combatants is well beyond me.

It’s ignorance, and (were my Male not a former Naval officer) I might share it. The understanding of what makes a legal combatant has gotten badly obscured and rather murky in the past few years.

Some of that has been deliberate, but most has to do with the fact that most reporters are operating on about 5 minutes’ study time for anything.
