[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Strange, the oil slick did get plenty of coverage here in Finland, and I never realized this wasn't yer standard globally-recycled-Reuters reporting. I guess people<>turtles depends on the exact species, breed and stage of maturity. But the good old "keep the helpers from helping" trick is by no means limited to this oil spill. If Israel is going to bomb the roads sufficiently to prevent Katyusha trailers from being towed to firing position, those roads aren't going to allow food or water to be trucked in, either. Another related good old trick is the triple volley, apparently also implemented here to good effect. First, hit the enemy. Wait for five minutes, then hit again to catch those who are helping the wounded. Then hit once more when the people at the receiving end think "they can't be so evil that they would do it [i]again[/i]". There's something of a discontinuity between the reality of war, and the international treaties that still stipulate that nothing bigger than .30 cal machine guns should ever be used on unprotected people.
