We finally will have 24/7 coverage of bombing runs on rag heads Muslim extremists to jerk off to.

This is a great thing. Its not like we are going to storm Baghdad again........





gently caress.. We are going to wind up storming Baghdad again aren't we? Because we never learn...


:smith:

No don't worry, it seems that the Iraqi state will be able to hold on to Bagdad.


What you will be doing is storming and occupying Mosul and Fallujah again.

We had to let Merkel give peace a chance, but I don't think that Putin will stop until he has another puppet government in Ukraine.

Can you imagine the outrage if the US lopped Sonora, Chihuahua, and Baja California off of Mexico and then invaded the rest? You'd be able to hear the screaming on the Moon.

Why is it inevitable?

If you're arguing that Americans are generally loving stupid and overestimate the usefulness of the world's most powerful military within the context of middle east clusterfucks, I agree. Look at this stupid rear end in a top hat, for example:


Go sit in the corner.

He's not wrong. We are doing this, let's do it right. If you want to know why we are doing this it's easy to find opinions, though none matter. Particularly ours. My pet opinion is simply put: These blacks and Mexicans and what we consider this countries "left" don't vote in mid-term elections. People like me do, and we elect a GOP congress in times like these generally. I may not have personally voted them all in, but you can only blame the idiots who voted and the idiots who didn't vote, for why we will always inevitably go full retard, and that's everyone.

We all bear that cross, because not a one of us knows truly why things are this way, and absolutely none of us effectuate change in this tiny rear end forum- least of all the worlds wealthiest and third most populous loving nation of rich idiots, poor idiots, prisoners, illegal immigrants and asylum seekers. And yes that's Americas population ingredient list in order of proportion.

Guy wants to see us do the job right, you wanna know why we do the job at all, and I know you read Shakespeare so you know the bit about reasoning why..

So don't be deliberately obtuse. Just admit you are like the rest of us and have no goddamn idea why things are this way or how they got this way. It's at least intellectually honest.

He's daft, but just because your the chimp that figured out how to work the cameras doesn't mean you run the zoo, it just makes you a monkey with a camera, and an opinion. Your the one holding both so you know which one is more valuable than the other when your holding them both.

Not that your wrong, but being right never won a fight. See: Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, etc.

One thing I do want to make quite clear, though, is that no - I do not think that we should burn the entire place down and kill everyone.

I'm not that loving stupid.

One thing I do believe though is that using our tactics that we have used in the past will not work. What should we do specifically? I don't know offhand. But I do also think think that our previous tactics will end up being, ultimately, ineffective because we are retards.

I don't actually, seriously, think that we should bring in the loving South Africans or Executive Solutions or Outcomes or whatever the gently caress. I can't believe I have to say that in this of all places.

Well disregard my above post entirely, Vic. This slack jawed human being isn't on board with the quickening, or the day of the mushroom clouds, obviously. :rolleyes:

ISIL are just the PTSD and TBI addled retard survivors of The Surge who used to go by AQIZ before we 86'd AMZ.. Now back with a MacBook and some go pro's. By not truly and completely killing that entire weed, down to its roots, we let the thing come back bigger and worse than ever. Worse than kudzu, and less useful. At least kudzu makes atmospheric O2. Muds just.. Well you've seen what they leave all over the place. It its not literal pieces of them with residue of RDX to boot its their terrible body odor and female circumcision practices.

They are all actual "human" pieces of poo poo (My apologies to actual poo poo for dragging its good name through the mud(s)) that are in desperate need of disposal.

but see gender is just an identity and has nothing to do with what is between your legs. bathrooms should reflect this

I LIKE IT.

I personally don't find anything unmasculine about sitting down to pee. Sometimes it's just nice to take a load off for a few minutes.

So 5 years ago I joined the Goon group on Goodreads, got bored and did a bit of trolling. One of the things I did was add a bunch of cookbooks for ribs to a list of books for vegan teens. I forgot about this until an hour ago when I got an email that someone had commented. Somebody is demanding that I remove these books from the list. I'm going to play dumb and see what happens.

I think we could just shut down NTC and Ft. Irwin if that were the case. Hold a large-scale training op every two years called Objective Baghdad instead.

An oldie but a goodie from Duffelblog: Exercise ENDURING FREEDOM.

Some choice quotes:

quote:

“This is my third time doing Enduring Freedom,” said Sergeant Vince Wegner, “and I’m still unclear what my objective is. Am I supposed to be building mosques and wells, fighting the enemy, removing corrupt officials, or building those same corrupt officials up?”

Col. Page responded, “There is no particular objective associated with Enduring Freedom. We originally tried developing this elaborate backstory involving a massive terrorist attack on the United States, but too many commanders were questioning how that tied in with passing out money to illiterate farmers.”

quote:

“No,” he continued, “Washington is clearly trying to send a message to Beijing, and that message is: if you so much as twitch at Japan, we will invade your country, topple your government, recreate it using most of the same people, then mull around for a decade while passing out kickbacks until we run out of money and forget why we’re even there.”

quote:

“In a way we’re a victim of our own success because now everyone wants to show off their new hardware in Enduring Freedom. Over the years we’ve had to find missions for tank battalions, bomber squadrons, legions of support personnel, things we never would have thought of in 2001 when it was just a dozen guys on horses.”

“Last year we got so desperate we started throwing in random scenarios where host nation forces would open fire on friendly forces for no reason,” Page said.

My favorite:

quote:

Joint Base Afghanistan is a 650,000 km2 live-fire range in Central Asia and the largest of its kind in the world. Originally built by the Russians in 1979 over an abandoned British hunting preserve, it was briefly leased by the Pakistani military until acquired by the United States and NATO in 2001 for the sole purpose of combat training.

There were rumors of an engagement between base defense type US forces there and some ISIS dudes but I think the only thing that's been confirmed is that they've been taking regular (ineffectual so far) IDF.

Part of me hopes they set their sights on Asad since apparently some US personnel are there still, and no doubt they would not spare any ordinance in getting those guys out.
