RE: The South African Border War - Operation K or Koevoet the crowbar (Warning-not for the squeamish)
Can't imagine what their mindset is like in those conditions to be mounting the bodies on their vehicles...brutal. I've worked with people fleeing from war (not so much the people fighting them), I've hear their stories. I'm sure many of us have heard stories in person or online too. But when you stop and think about what would drive someone to do this, we're talking the minds of severely traumatised, desperate or just downright deranged people who would have done it anyway!
I don't agree with war, I don't agree with humans losing their thirst for life either, to wrap themselves in cotton wool. Life is brutal sometimes and sometimes we can forget that.
Put a few people with the wrong type of personality together in a bush that is far away from everything, make them answerable to no one and there is no telling what brutality will emerge.
Stanford prison experiment type stuff...
Yeah exactly. We're all animals at heart, I've seen it happened with my own eyes on a small scale. Desperate, isolated minds (not necessarily isolated individuals). People get violent, rumours are usually rife causing problems and mindset shifts.
