IIRC the Airborne soldiers used food as bait to lure hungry kids into the compound so they attack them. Kinda like throwing tins of food into trenches.

That's two different incidents both in March of 1993.

March 4th the Canadian troops stored food and water so it was visible from a public area and had a sniper set up to defend the food. Two thieves were shot several times in the back (in self defense /s) when the thieves continued to run after warning shots having been fired. One of the thieves allegedly even continued to fight while unconscious, because the killing shot was done to the back of the head at close range, so clearly also self defense. While attempting to run away one of the thieves were shot so badly that the troops could not move the body without it falling apart.

The only real overlap between this and the ww1 incident is that food was part. But in ww1 the food was offered, seemingly as a Christmas gesture, like "here's some food, here's some food, here's a grenade", not locked up like I Somalia.

Arone was found in a porta potty 12 days later on March 16th at an abandoned US army base. The wiki says nothing about Arone bring lured, he was just on the shitter outside the Canadian base.

Let that be a lesson to all: don't use abandoned toilets near Canadian army bases, because you might get water boarded, burned with a cigaret on your penis and sodomized with a broomstick, before being beaten to death.

Thanks for clearing that up, and reminding me that some of my country's volunteers are absolute shitbags.

Shitbags are all around, but in civilized countries, like your politely murderous country, they're exposed and not covered up. That's why we know about it.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
