As reprehensible as the death threats are, there’s also a certain admission here. Normally with a “successful” military operation, there’d be a lionizing of the military leadership responsible. That they’re getting angry he’s even been named, despite it posing zero threat to the man, betrays that they see this as more a mafia goon squad operation than “defending freedom and liberty.”
I don't see it that way. They're mad that their names are being publicized because they want to operate with total impunity and lack of civilian oversight, same as ICE. They want to be able to canoe innocent people and napalm children without anyone asking them questions. They've always wanted that, only now they feel entitled to it and empowered to threaten anyone who doesn't agree into silence.
People generally don’t want impunity unless they think they’re going to do something that merits punishment.
Yeah, i used the wrong term there. I meant to say that they don't want any backlash or criticism or visibility to their actions, because when the other shoe inevitably drops, they'd rather nobody knew what they did or who.
