I know that some will think I gave you a "Like" because I agree. And I do to a certain point. But letting Soldiers keep bounty though is a slippery slope. One that has never turned out well.
Maybe a bonus for bagging a HVT. But the rest should go into the general fund.
ISIS does that - it's a time-honored Muslim tradition in war, called "ganimah" - "spoils of war" or "war booty". They divvy it up amongst the fighters, with a cut going to the leader... kinda like the pirates did in the old days when they took a "prize".
Some of those Yazidi girls from Sinjar fell under the heading of "ganimah", and the owner could either use them as he liked, or sell them to someone else who would on the auction block on Mosul.
I'd be more comfortable with distributing the proceeds among the local victims, who are, after all, the most immediate victims of ISIS currently.
Thats a good idea as well, whatever works just don't send it back to Washington to be pissed away on more bad ideas to help in removing more freedoms. As far as the Yazidi girls I have a rule I don't mess with anything younger than my own kids. Right now that is 32, then we can talk.... lol
