"Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot," Mattis said, prompting laughter from some military members in the audience. "It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling.

"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil," Mattis said. "You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them."

Amazing.

How is it that otherwise intelligent, successful people can make the most incredibly, obviously stupid statements in public and instantly torpedo their careers?

George Orwell said it best: People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

I met (then) Lt Col Mattis at Quantico. He scared the hell out of me - having just lead TF Ripper thru Kuwait - he seemed like a great guy to have on your side.
