romperstomper said:Rambo sucked give me Arnold Schwarzenager as Hercules in New York anyday. Just remember G dub thinks strategery is a word and the secretary of state wants the surge of troops into Iraq called an augmentation. Will it work? No. Would blowing up Iraq killing all the "innocents" work? Yes but it would place the US into a whole shitload of trouble. But in my mind no Iraqi is innocent if a majority strap a bomb to their car just to kill themselves, other Iraqis, and soliders just because of religious views. To think Iraq is suppose to be the holy land because of it's fertil ground between the Tigris and Euphrates. Irony much?

The thought that the UN can go fuck itself when we decided to go to war and now has some bearing on how we handle it as far as the consequences of our actions is laughable. Certainly legitimate but the thought in hindsight just makes me smirk.
Before:
'Fuck them, let's roll.'
After:
'Be careful what you do the world's watching.'
You'dve figured even the biggest damn fool would've seen how boned we were by getting involved at all. But apparently forsight isn't in the job description anymore.
Hurray for cyclical history.

However, tbh, I really think they have you over a barrel. "We will withdraw when the Iraqi people have the means to look after and police themselves". "OK, give us guns and we'll be able to do that, then you can go". "Errmmm......".

It's partly our fault that he became the leader but we didn't just put him in his position. Also, us giving him weapons has no relevence to the current situation of the topic as far as I'm aware.
If you know something I don't about this, please link me some resources.
Antor said:My brother came up with the most hilarious idea for the car bombing problem. Simple solution: take away all civilian vehicles. That way when someone's riding by on their tricycle you'll have to see the dynamite stick dragging along behind the guy. The only way you couldn't stop him in time is if you're laughing your ass off too hard and can't take the shot.
But it was more of a joke... don't take it seriously.
