Death Squads
Rummy was talking yesterday about the reformation of the army, including the use of smaller, more nimble forces:
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Rumsfeld said he wants to build bigger and stronger special-ops forces that can act in countries where the United States isn't at war. "The special-operations forces are capable of doing things that other forces aren't. … We are increasing their budget and we are increasing their equipment. The problem is bigger and there is more of a demand for them."
I'll bet!

In some places these would be called "death squads". Am I the only concerned that we want to send military forces into a country with which we're not at war?
