Not my tax dollars.

We just wouldn't have had to burn massive stacks of cash to do so. how the everloving gently caress did saddam control the country. i guess it wasn't ground zero for a saudi-iran proxy war at the time but still.

Jagchosis posted:slate is lecturing millennials for not being as retarded as old people about terrorism The libertarianism and isolationism of our time cross party lines. They affects President Obama, who came into office promising to bring our troops home. But they also affects Republicans. Sen. Lindsey Graham, the Republican presidential candidate who has campaigned on a platform of sending troops to fight ISIS, couldn’t even garner enough support in the polls to get into his party’s undercard debate last week. ????

Saddam repressed the gently caress out the shiia and let the Kurds some autonomy and then instituted a progressive secular state which gave opportunities to all people including women and Christians using socialized oil wealth.
