Under what UNSC authority would the US have been permitted to support the Shia?

And why were we flying over Iraq, to take pictures?

Whoa!!! That sure makes me feel better!! I guess we must have exited NATO sometime over the past 1 1/2 that I was in Iraq. Thanks for the update!!

You're a lot dumber than you look.

And I guess they can manage to send the 400,000 to 500,000 soldiers into the country that generals like Shinseki would recommend as necesary to end the civil war and maintain internal security in that country. After all, since Sudan has twice as many people as Iraq, and Shinseki recommended 250,000 US troops for the occupation and peace-keeping mission there, logically it follows that twice as many soldiers will be needed to accomplish the same task in Sudan.

Your dart throw missed again.

There is a huge difference between Afghanistan and Iraq. Your comparison is trite.

Only if you're too stupid, or blind, to see it.


Yes, you are.


More than that, you believe that if we don't bother them, they'll leave us alone and be "kinder, gentler" little Jihadists who will eventually become peace loving "modernists". All they need is a little love and tenderness, and some kind-hearted "re-education".


I don't recall writing that thought. Do you have the balls to show me the post were I made that statement or all your balls withered up?

When you show me that post I'll look at the rest of your drivel.
