The primary targets are collaborators, who are necessary for the
occupation to succeed. By collaborating, they become part of the
occupation, and therefore are legitimate targets for an occupation
resistance.

Correct attribution of quoted material in Usenet posts is probably the
one policy we can all agree on.

Kerry likes this war just as much as Bush. In fact, he likes it so much, he
wants to increase the number of troops there. Your friend is screwed, because
Kerry will send him back just as surely as Bush. Tell your friend to look at
the Libertarians if he is a conservative type, the Greens or Nader if he's
smarter than that.
