Michael J. Totten: A Plan to Kill Everyone

Posted January 6, 2008

A sign on the door leading out of India Company’s Combat Operations Center says “Have a Plan to Kill Everyone You Meet.” For a fraction of second I thought it might be some kind of joke. But I was with the Marine Corps in Fallujah, and it wasn’t a joke.

I asked Captain Stewart Glenn if he could explain and perhaps elaborate a bit on what, exactly, that sign is about. “It’s pretty straightforward,” he said rather bluntly. “It means exactly what it says.”

yeah, but don’t we all sort of do that anyway?? I mean, the first thing i think when i meet someone new is ‘could i take this fucker?’
When i first met you for instance, my first thought was ‘you could totally pull this feller’s toque down over his eyes and then once he’s blinded that bitch is at your mercy.’
