That was Van Damme. I wasn't there.
Sarcasm aside- we all know that this is the enemy.
But:
Okay so I haven't been on the ground in Iraq, but it sure looks like the above group- the enemy- is increasingly becoming the "civilian population" and it is becoming more difficult to distinguish between the two. Some have no doubt joined the cause as time went by, others have been forced to join by compulsory measures (i.e. join us or get your throat cut). Either way, those civilians who are indeed trying to live a "normal" life are going to unavoidably get screwed.
What then is keeping a permanent military presence on foreign soil for the express purpose of keeping the populace in mortal fear of us, while politicians and their powerful constituents in energy industries divide up the profits?
I'm not opposed to engaging jihadism but honestly, I think our soldiers on the ground are the only ones who really give a shit about ending it. The suits making the decisions on the other hand couldn't care less what happens to it as long as economic interests are sustained. Oldest story in the book.
Sorry, I will let you finish your other crucial postings on this important website so you can get back to banging some cougar scags in downtown Dutch and take your weekly turn in the barrel on your boat. Happy fishing!
