Bizarre submersible found floating off New York City

It's Olde News(tm) and has no emotional impact any more...

Killed a shitload of terrorists, liberated 25,000,000 from a very nasty despot, formed a central Democratic government and since the surge..it appears that terrorist attacks are way way way down, the Iraqis themselves are dropping a dime on the insurgents and the nation is slowly coming to gether.

Read Mao first.

If we knew who, what, when and where, we could send Barney Fife to nip it in the bud, arresting them before they were dangerous. But we don't know (and the Democrats seem bound and determined to prevent us from collecting the dots, let alone connecting them), so have to plan to protect and defend everywhere.

Yeah. I just wish I didn't have to.

But haven't we also -created- more than we've killed? We're still taking the rap for all the fuckups of the new gov't there.

One we helped create/define?

Which still can't function at all without our constant help?

Every accomplishment you've stated is going to (or might) congeal in the future but isn't ready for prime time this year.

Who's your fave translator for Sun? I almost bought the illustrated copy by Griffith last year but it was $25.

You want me to read the Little Red Book by Mao Tse Tung? If not that, what book/author?

No..we have not created more than we have killed. The Syrians and Iranians have created them.

Nope. Read your history.

Indeed. But they did have at least 4 general elections so far, with women also voting for the first time.

Taking tribal 12th century people into the 21st takes time.

My copy is by Giles.

Ayup. Peoples War as well

I'm not so sure that war hasn't created them by the deaths of their families, and when we jumped in, it simply increased it exponentially.

I know he was always a bad guy, but the CIA training didn't help matters any. He was loved and hated by his people, but for most of them, things are worse now.

I don't think there is any chance in Hell that the Iraqi gov't will come even close to being democratic, or Republican. ;)

Agreed.

How about his version of _The Art of War_ and _On Guerilla Warfare_?

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.
