The idea is not to stop bullets. The idea is to stop thirst. If there is no water you drink blood and condition your body to get used to it.

Remember, blood contains a reasonable quantity of water. Roger?

But they never run "outta bullets" when oppressing unarmed and unthreatening civilians? You're very mad. Give credit to undisciplined and unprofessional animals who run away from their real mandates and instead focus on 'showing power' on soft targets? You must be very mad.
people are very angry in this country... now I wonder if you would do better of you were a soldier in this country with the way you're insulting me grin
the government needs to address the soldiers better, and u too!

Who told you the military doesn't believe in God or gods?

Have you not noticed that their band usually consists of hymns (for countries that acknowledge religion/existence of God).

When you are doing things greater than yourself, you will realize the need to leverage on a higher power.
It is just how they started, most of them don't believe in God

Although this is quite an old photo but it's how the Marines train and not any ritual
It's only performed by the US Marines on their jungle survival training called Cobra gold whereby they eat scorpions and drink the blood of Cobra's

It takes alot to be a Soldier but here, an average Nigerian soldier can't even kill a snake. Ordinary untrained boko boys do chase them out of battlefield and they will run and start blaming Government for not providing them with rockets, missiles and nuclear weapons.

But, they're well trained when it comes to oppressing innocent civilians.

How did this thread turn into a debate about religion? grin

The pictures show how Thai (and US ) army personnel survive in very harsh conditions - conditions they are likely to face in combat. The only question is if raw snake blood has any potential adverse effects on the human body - a question which is likely to have been answered already.

We do not even need to go far. Right here on our own continent, our Masai kindred live on a diet that consists almost entirely of milk, meat and blood. And they seem to be doing just fine.

Some people have pointed out that the thread is simply about military survivalist drills but other posters have pivoted (as usual) to the supernatural. undecided The thread is an opportunity to learn. Let the 'religionists' save their argument for some other place and time.

You do have a point about Soldiers harrasing civilians but hey Nigeria was once governed by the Military. Oppression started there which still happens till today. But if u noticed a soldier is someone who should be respected owing to the sacrifices they have encountered in the course of serving this country. In Nigeria civilians dont respect soldiers as seen in most countries. Dont hate a soldier, they one reason you sleep comfortably at night. If a soldier is taken care of like other countries and given that respect Soldiers will be more than lovely to civilians.

^^^
Here we go again.

Respect is earned. It is not decreed into existence. It is earned!!!

There is a serious problem when military personnel whine 24/7 about some real or imagined disrespect from civilians. Respect is earned! And it should be mutual and reciprocal!

All this talk about sacrifice and service to country bores me to death. Are there not other personnel paying the supreme price in the service of this country? undecided Aren't there medical personnel (nurses, lab technicians, physicians etc.) on the frontlines when an epidemic or a pandemic hits? Do you ever hear of these professionals and the price they pay? Do you know how many of them die when there's an outbreak of lassa fever or cholera? Do you ever hear these people demanding to be 'respected' at every turn? undecided

Lets get serious.

I don't think this kind of comment is fair enough about those who have sacrificed almost all to defend you and I.

Some of them have not set their eyes on their wives and children for the past one year. For us to be making this kind of unfair remarks about them shows how mean we are as a people.

I think This type of comments of yours are contributing to their brutality on the civilians .

undecided

I am not holding a brief for the fellow you quoted but your comments up there are part of the problem.

First of all, military brutality against Nigerian civilians is not a new thing. It was there before Boko Haram and will probably still be there after Boko Haram. The military high command has traditionally looked the other way or even actively encouraged this behaviour. It is all part of the deep and long held contempt that the Nigerian military has for those 'goddamned bloody civilians'. undecided

According to you, certain comments (like the one made by the fellow you quoted) are part of the reason for military brutality in Nigeria. undecided My question is: were soldiers brutalizing civilians long before Boko Haram was born? And if they were, what were the reasons for their actions then? Are you defending the indefensible?

There are so many people (ordinary civilians) who have been treated very unjustly by these uniformed men. They haven't forgotten and will not forget. Comments like yours will not help the situation.

Going by this logic I guess the security man defending your house has a right to slap your kids around and even rape your wife afterall he is laying his life on the line and things are not easy for him. The DSS guys who protect the governor should from time to time beat him if they are unhappy shey. SMH

This is an insensitive to say. You need to know the amount of equipment, technological support and intelligent support that are available to US army
