| Not trying to justify mutilation - and any humane
person would agree that war in any form is in-humane,
that's why it's called war -
people get killed in often sick and bizzare ways.
But fighting FULL-ass (as opposed to half-assed)
isn't really a solution either.
Iraqis yesterday promised to turn their country into
another Vietnam if we don't get the fuck out.
As you most likely know, Vietnam was perhaps the
most half-assed, armchair general-run war of the
century.
What we need to ask ourselves, and get an honest
answer for is this: Why are we still in Iraq?
I think it's safe to say that we've sent a pretty
strong message to terrorists & thier supporting
nations - except of course for Saudi Arabia, who
can apparently do whatever the fuck they want as
long as they're sitting on the world's largest oil
reserve...
remember, most of the 911 bombers were Saudis.
Saddam is in the bag, so that's done with - what's
left? Ah yes . . . the oil. Halliburton, Bectel
and friends haven't had the opportunity to get
enough of it under American control.
We'll leave when the pumps are economically controlled
by the US if not physically - until then, look forward to
more partial-assed fighting, because there really
isn't anything to fight for that we can admit to
anymore.
The media will keep releasing tidbits about our
boys getting killed so that there will be moral
support for the continued invasion - your anger
and frustration is just what they want to produce
so that more Americans will support the war against...
What were we fighting for? Oh yeah, we were taking
down Saddam . . . I think.
And today Rummy says the rotation of troops OUT of
Iraq will be delayed until they can amass even
more troops than are already there.
That's the outrage, I think, but opinions are like
assholes as they say, and I swore I'd keep out of
these non-shroom related threads... damn this war!
