Sounds like a great plan, actually. Having a global presence is necessary for immediate reaction to terrorism, to pacifying dictators and murdering their bureaucratic death machines; it is necessary to securing free markets and fighting socialism and religious fundamentalism. If you were playing a game and trying to construct the most dominant nation, wouldn't you want troops in the middle of a hot spot? And aren't we the good guys? Or are you all about sectarian violence, Islamo-fascism and instability? Driivng the Jews into the sea and all that? Seriously, whereabouts does your foolishness stand. |

ok... in the Marine Battle Hymn "the shores of Tripoli" are mentioned... ever wonder where that came from? From this country's very founding we have had trouble with criminals hiding behind Islam. US Troops have been involved in the unrest associated with radical Islam since US troops have existed. Back then they were known as Barbary States... or states adhered to Barbarism. What's changed? This goes way back to before WW1, Kev. This is just the re-emergence of a battle between the future and the past that existed as long as humans have had any sort of concept of ideology. |

The problem with that Chojin is that Blanco and I, especially Blanco, have tried that with him. It's pointless. He refuses to really engage, and prefers to spam the board with his poorly informed talking points. He's really kind of useless. Take this article--as Blanco points out, the retired gneral isn't actually saying what Geggy is. I can't count how many times Geggy has done this, his own brand of retarded paraphrasing and distortion. We have wasted time on this planet trying to debate Geggy, and he refuses. So we have fun with him instead. |

| Chojin | Well, I would at least like to see one really articulate 'shut up'. | |

I think there should be a Geggy Clause in that case. You would learn more from the phone book, Chojin. |

| Chojin | Well, I still like to read the debate rather than just see a page of 'shut up's. | |

More extreme versions of Sunni Islam call for the return of the Caliphate that extended from Central Asia to the Pyrenees Mountains. Do you honestly think this fight is brand new? |

Hell, we have had troops in the MidEast for a few decades now. Another case of numbnuts not fully reading or thinking about what someone is saying and twisting it to fit his own sick fantasies. |

Retired general tells all US troops will be in the Middle East for next 50 years, says Abazaid Associated Press Thursday November 1, 2007 Guardian Unlimited US troops could be in the Middle East for another 50 years, according to the longest serving commander of the Qatar-based US Central Command. General John Abazaid, who retired in May, said the "strategic situation" in the region - the rise of extremism and the global dependence on oil - would necessitate a long-term presence. "Over time, we will have to shift the burden of the military fight from our forces directly to regional forces, and we will have to play an indirect role. http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,,2203337,00.html |
