You're a lot dumber than you look.

Since you have no idea what I look like, who's the idiot here??

But if you're trying to say "you're a lot dumber than you think", then take it as a compliment..

I just wanted you to treat me as an equal.. ;0)

Your dart throw missed again.

It's not very difficult to throw a dart and have it fly directly through the gaping holes in your logic.

Hell... face some facts.. you haven't even built the target yet... You don't have a strategy.. a mission statement, or an exit strategy... Just the concept of encouraging NATO to embroil themselves in a civil war fueled by sectarian violence...

The same kind of war you've been claiming that the US shouldn't bother with being involved in preventing in Iraq....

Or is this REALLY all about oil?

Darfur's tribes rebelled against the government complaining that the Sudan government had failed to develop the area. It is alleged that the rebels, aware of the terms of the proposed peace agreement between the government of Sudan and the SPLA, hoped to strike a favorable deal for themselves.

Southern Darfur, like southern Sudan, is rich in oil. The Chinese National Petroleum Corporation holds the large oil concession in southern Darfur. Chinese soldiers are alleged to be protecting Chinese oil interests.

It is also alleged that the rebels in southern Darfur are getting weapons from outside Sudan. "UN observers say they have better weapons than the Sudanese army, and are receiving supplies by air," according to Crescent International (UK).


How does it feel jttmab to, ironically, be supporting another "WAR FOR OIL"??
