Sniper Missions - The Business of War and the War of Business or Jaccuse... Encore une fois!: Sergeant Radar One Zero: Kindle Store. LIMITED TIME SPECIAL PRICE $0.99 until 18 April 2012 only! Normal price $5.99This is the Vietnam War story for Afghanistan and the Global War on Terror.In Apocalypse Now one saw, through the eyes of the assassin, the descent of Colonel Kurtz, a good, if not great, soldier, into madness. This portrait was a mirror image of Kurtz, the slaver and ivory smuggler, of Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. Sniper Missions is a first person account of just such a person: A good soldier, who started life as an idealistic conscript from an upper class background, born into racial wealth and privilege under Apartheid, who becomes a rogue soldier. As his career progresses he becomes a terrorist for the Provisional Wing of the IRA and sees terrorism through the eyes of the terrorist. He also supplies weapons to Sierra Leone's rebels during the civil war in that country. During the Croatian War of Independence he is human trafficker selling young women into prostitution. He is a gun runner, a property developer, a torturer, an atheist and a human being.A man who ultimately turns his back on war due to the Rwandan Genocide but returns to Afghanistan in order to be able to pursue his true cause.You are taken into the very private and human life of a man who is literally capable of anything in war time, and who is ultimately broken not by war, but by peace. As a complete biographical portrait of his life, emotions, thoughts on war and the morality of war, and the funding and supplying of wars, from the point of view of a War Criminal, you will feel what it means to be broken and betrayed by the Western society that created you. The main mission is set in Afghanistan, but you will also travel through some of the main conflicts of the last twenty five years, seeing how colonialism has been replaced by a modern variant called War Colonisation, and see how this underpins all of modern society and how it has given rise to the concentration of wealth in the hands of the One Percent. Based very closely on actual events, this book references genocides and other atrocities through eye witness testimony. Nothing and no one is spared and this book takes no prisoners in getting to the Truth.This is life through the eyes of a paranoid, schizophrenic, psychopath. The lone gunman, the serial killer, the terrorist; the man who returned from the Heart of Darkness to say “J'accuse... Encore une fois!”Print equivalent: Approximately 610 pagesThis edition includes commentary on the Kony 2012 Campaign whose stated aim is to force governments, including the US Government, to commit the resources required to capture the leader of the Lord's Resistance Army, Joseph Kony. This includes commentary on the deployment of US Military Advisers in northern Uganda to assist with this goal.
