        Oh, I see now! Joining the army allows you to understand geopolitical issues! Of course!

        No country or group EVER learns from the past. The same mistakes are repeated over and over.

          Fez, why are there not as many troops in there then? everyone promised to build a new Afghanistan before they marched in

          even some of my "friends" ( ) here told me so, and I always knew it was bull****. not that I mind. sometimes you need to bull**** people to bam bam, bam test some cool weapons. I liked the Iraq show, a bit too distant though

            to be shifted from existing foreign and military aid accounts so as not to increase the deficit

            It would be fascinating to see which foreign and military aid accounts those are.

            Re the actual spending, it looks to me like we're trying to buy Karzai's election.
            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                  Is Qaddafi a country or group?

                  It's true. Every new power thinks it is different, so thinks they won't repeat the mistakes made in the past.

                  Of course they often wind up doing.

                  Ya learn much whilst digging latrines, grunt?

                    GP, noone ever meant to kill his daughter, nor is it even a valid means.

                    you should make those bastards learn by killing other bastards. like in Iraq, or in the terrirtories

                      It must be fun to try to understand things when you're barely literate.

                        It must be fun to be a liberal ****. We're going to kill those who went and killed our people. They understand this just fine in the Middle East. Not doing anything would be pathetic and just incite more attacks.

                              I didn't say nothing should be done - I'm saying it won't necessarilly be a detterant to other tinpot regimes in the middle east.

                              Oh, wait - there are polysyllabic words there! You alright with that?

                                Unfortunately only the US has been flipping the bill. $300 million paid so far. Insofar, an inadequate amount.

                                even some of my "friends" ( ) here told me so, and I always knew it was bull****. not that I mind. sometimes you need to bull**** people to bam bam, bam test some cool weapons. I liked the Iraq show, a bit too distant though
                                Uh huh.
                                For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)
