I'm fond of "Mutully Assured Destruction". It's a brilliant way to keep large armies from invading one another...

Bong, you're wrong about Vietnam and Iraq... both were/are moral and practical failures. And the one arm tied behind the back in Iraq was all Rumsfeld... he bullied his agenda for a quick war through the pentagon, not even considering the prevailing military wisdom of using overwhelming force.
I have been saying MAD in about 10 threads...thanks for selecting just Bullshit to point out.

How was I wrong? Iraq.....was done totally wrong. Rumsfeld can fuck off. He is an Idiot.

My view is they need Iraq...To keep Iran from turing the whole area back into ancient Pursia.

Ill go slow

Saddam was a sunni.... he kept the Fucking Radical piece of shit Shite at Bay...... He "Saddam" was not good, but better than Iraq Now....

Iraq could be a Place where Shite and sunni could live with Jews and Catholics all together....... But, There minds are too small. They (iraqi People) cant see the big picture. Under Saddam it would have Never been a Place of Peace....

DO YOU GUYS FORGET KUWAIT? SADDAM IS STABLE?????...STFU

During BUsh 1, Schwarzkopf was told NOT to March and take Bagdad, we left them with about 20% of there Milatary. Just enough to Keep Iran at Bay.

This is where, one place... Osama Bin Laden drew his hate for us...USA soldiers on Saudi Arabia Land....give me a fucking break. You should be able to wear a slayer shirt to Mecca.....Fuck Mecca.

The Insurgents are......drum roll please......are the Iraqi people. 10% -20% are from outside the country.

The rest are Regular Radical Muslims who just want us dead, Now, Later Yesterday, tomarrow.

Even If we didnt Go into Iraq.....Radical Muslims...(See friday prayers in IRAN)
Would have Brought hate and death to the west.

NOw we Need to end this Bullshit.

Shall I go into the 12th Imam? NO.... Just Digest above for a while.:thumbsup:
