always, have a nice, simple-minded day.

I think Bin Laden is really pretty insignificant in the grand scheme
of things but if we didn't have him around we would invent another
bogie man to give us an excuse to look.
I always believed we did kill OBL in Tora Bora and we just let the
legend live on unchallenged for that reason.



We're going to smoke him out... perhaps he meant via wacky tobacci...

Obama Bin Laden, ooops, sorry, Osama Bin Laden will die an old man of
natural causes. Far too many make far too much money not to catch him.

The old approach of fly in, bomb the targets and leave was a far better
policy than occupation. THe west hasn't got the politicial guts to win
this war for many of the same reasons as Vietnam.

Sorry, scheisskopf, you cannot win these wars by "bombing the targets."
Of course, you can't win these wars with occupation, either.

This is a new age...we're not fighting centralized, industrial,
western-like powers in that part of the world. They were living as they
lived 500 years ago before we got there, and they'll be living that way
long after we leave.

In Afghani-like scenarios, the military is...obsolete.

The problem with that is it accomplishes nothing and alienates
everyone, including people who should be our allies.
By the end of the "bomb them from orbit" Clinton administration we had
lost the respect of most of the world. That is why the Iraq sanctions
were failing.


Again with the revisionist history lesson?? Clinton was hugely popular both
here and abroad. He remains so. It's Bush who lost the world's respect for
the US.

Perhaps I need to clarify, Clinton was popular but his Iraq policy was
roundly rebuked. There were protesters in the street all over Europe.
Most of the EU was defying the embargo.


His containment policy worked pretty well, although it was starting to
weaken toward the end of his second term. It was a heck of a lot better than
what came next though.

Well then, we should be promoting its production instead of poppies.
I'd like for the 30,000 troops to help them build schools, hospitals
and reseed their poppy fields with hemp.

Afghani clothing and hash would be fine exports that'd put the world
in a better mood.

A lot better plan than the one we will hear tomorrow. You should run
for office.

Appreciate the endorsement but I have too many skeletons in the
closet, including a set of German screwdrivers.
