May all our enemies wage war that way

Three prisoners have committed suicide in Guantanamo.

"I believe this was not an act of desperation, rather an act of asymmetric warfare waged against us," said Rear Admiral Harry Harris, commander of Joint Task Force-Guantanamo.

Suicide without murdering anyone in the process? Assymetrical warfare? The only reason I can imagine for making such a statement is the attempt to encourage the particularly aggressive enemies from the wrong side of the bell curve to commit more such acts of assymetrical warfare. Not that there is anything wrong with it. Personal choice, you know...

If that was not the thought behind the statement the Rear Admiral should probably be renamed as the Ass Admiral.
