Re: Global War on Terror 8 - Winter is Coming

Ironically, the guy who actually started this sh-tball rolling is the same guy who is responsible for the only lasting positive accomplishment. Carter brokered peace between Israel and Egypt which has been incalculably helpful. But he also pioneered the Carter Doctrine, where we essentially extend the Monroe Doctrine to the Middle Eastern oil fields and declare that we have a right to and will use our military there whenever we feel our oil supply is in danger.

Hey, it isn't our fault our oil is under their sand.

Now, about Nice...

Sounds like a very devoted Muslim.

The Nice attacker's cousin speaks
'He drank alcohol, ate pork & took drugs. He was NOT a Muslim - he was a ****'

Dude sat parked on the route for 9 hours prior, when questioned by Police, he told them he was delivering ice cream. They let him sit there for 9 hrs. Wow.

Guess we have to make it illegal to park a vehicle, then...
 
Re: Global War on Terror 8 - Winter is Coming

sure. we could have occupied Iraq forever. No one wanted that though.

How about we blame the person that got us that mess in the first place?

Bush is to blame, what about Arab Spring and Libya, are Hilary and Obama to blame for that mess?

That's a well-insulated ice cream truck.

the people who arbitrarily drew lines on a map dividing up the middle east among colonial powers at the end of WWI.

Tribal identity, not "national" identity, has driven all the conflicts. If tribal boundaries and national boundaries were the same, many fewer problems.



or we could say GHW Bush for not taking out Saddam in 1991.




Or most appropriately (and this is who I blame the most), France's Jacques Chirac. GW Bush had the Security Council of the UN, including Russia and China all lined up to approve international action against Saddam for his failure to comply with UN resolutions requiring inspections for weapons of mass destruction. Then Chirac vetoed it (not Russia, not China).

It turns out that half of Chirac's government ministers were on Saddam's payroll, accepting bribes under the "oil for food" program that was put in place to alleviate the suffering of the Iraqi people under international sanctions.

Let's replay the Iraq war as a UN action, not a US action.

No, just be suspicious of a guy who takes 9 hours to deliver ice cream at an event where there is a large group of people congregating. It's the Polices' job to get a little suspicious of unusual activities like this. Aren't we all encouraged to report suspicious activities to the Authorities?

And then after doing so, be promptly arrested for a hate crime because your report was racist.

It's true that if we're ranking the alltime leaderboard, Balfour's in the top ten. So are William Simon and one of history's great finks, Jack Philby. The rest are a bunch of Arabs who ripped off their fellow countrymen in the greatest resource heist in world history.

Ya kind of got me on that one IF the suspicious person is not a white male, otherwise, yeah, I'm going to the klink.
