We had funded and supported Saddam's attack on Iran, we had been bombing Iran itself, we had been firing on civilians in Lebanon from the sea, we had given Israel cover to massacre civilians in Lebanon... how specifically were Iranian militants wrong in attacking a US military target in a war zone?

And by the way, we did get even. We shot down Iran Air 655 a few years later, killing 290 civilians.

It would have been a good idea to continue with your original idea, arguing politics without facts is futile.

In 2008 Dick Cheney and the Georgians (not to be confused with the other morons from Jawja) found out the hard way that Iskander missiles were very effective.

The Turks just learned that BUK-M2s were effective.

Note: It was probably a Russian crew that fired the missile.

We all know that Dick Cheney ordered the decapitation of thousands of little puppies in Teheran in 2001. This is a proven fact. Everybody knows it.

But only a few of us insiders know that the Zionist entity planned to simultaneously carpet bomb all the Muslim kindergartens in Switzerland using a secret death ray designed by Halliburton. But, praise be to Allah, the noble Pasdaran learned of this CIA-Mossad conspiracy and employed their mighty photon torpedoes to destroy the detested infidels. They also slyly covered their tracks by using Klingon crews to fire the weapons.

Allahu Akbar.

You'll notice I won't disagree with any of that. I agree we had been funding and covering. Which is why I said death for profit is bullshit. Or did you not want to quotre that part. I'll tell ya what....you let me know which facts are relevent. Then no one will argue politics!

What is the % of dems who will vote for Obama again? That has to be the most embarrassing statistic of all.
Hack dismisses facts and figures out of hand because they tell him something different than he the reality he believes in.

It's sad, but not atypical for Mr. Hacksaw to deny everything even when confronted with evidence.

The Reagan Administration considered Saddam Hussein, Islamic fundamentalists in Afghanistan, and Pakistan's ISI to be tremendous allies in the cause of Freedom. Because any enemy of the Soviet Union was a potential dear friend for us. No short-sightedness there.

Al Jazeera is run by the Emir of Qatar... an enemy of Iran.

I guess I missed that... my bad, and my apology for the uncalled for insult. Below is your entire post, I must have missed it. Did you post it elsewhere?

This is the PNN, and I'm used to getting responses like the ignorant bullshit Prof Dumb Fuck writes.

You did say that we were already at war, how do you believe the issues you mentioned should have been addressed?
GBJs wrote:I don't post very often on this forum because arguing politics is usually futile. But I've got to call bullshit on that one.

Desert Storm should have been begun YEARS before. Because if you don't believe we were at war, you are absolutely, naive. The early 1980s attack on a Marine barracks, Embassy bombings attack on the USS Cole etc... are all things which should have been addressed.

We were already at war. It was simply now done by some of our rules.

Do I believe the war was necessary? Yes. Was it done properly? Fuck no. Go to war, go to win, go to come home.

Absolutely the last time we fought a war to win was WWII. Korea, Viet Nam, both of the Gulf wars were more about profit than winning. And for that, there is no reason for loss of life.

If you want to watch a foreign-run network that's hostile to the US, forget about Al-Jazeera. Watch Russia Today (RT)

RT doesn't hate America and Israel enough or have enough Mossad-CIA conspiracy theories for OpEd's taste.

That is true... RT is very much anti-US.

With Qatar's turn to being Saudi puppets, Al Jazeera is very much pro-US.

But don't expect Prof Dumb Fuck to have a clue... everything to him needs to be a nefarious plot against the chosen people of god.

Great. The drunk repubs are back after a day of beach golf provided by some friend of somewhere someplace who I once knew in 8th grade. His name was Barb.
