    Bin Laden wasn’t on a battlefield, he merely directed others to perform deadly acts. Same as Thompson.

      No, but you see, because Mangione wasn’t employed by the US military (who started a baseless, illegal war in Iraq that led to literal hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths and massive regional instability), he’s on the hook for this one. Sorry, them’s the breaks. There’s no moral authority quite like the US military, I tell ya what.
