Well you said it right there, all the info so far has been filtered through
Truth or Patriot (or someone who trust them). Every thing has it's point of
view. When I was in the Marines we were deployed to Somalia. At first the
people were happy to see us as we stopped the 2 year long civil war there.
One of the "warlords" they convinced the people that the US wanted to take
the place over (the civil war started after Italy had left it as a "colony")
they did not want yet another foreign power to stay, so they rioted for 3
days. They burned cars, threw every thing from rocks and glass to grenades.
People laid down on the ground in front of an M-1 tank to try to stop it
(they had learned that we could not attack them, unless deadly force was
used against us). To them we were the enemy at that point. All due to their
perspective on what our mission was. Look at Patriot he wore the stars and
stripes even as a DP member. When he left he did not tell anyone, as he did
not want to put any of them in danger. And it's not like the DP catch deltas
and burn them, they try to put them in DS or DP to help defended or nation.
Are DP and Jack the enemy, well it looks like it most of the time, is it
true, only Matt can tell us that...
