$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('NEOPO', 'b')out like agentrwwff with his thule death chanting from day one followed up with a "WHA? ME A NEOCON?"
I tend to cut Rwwff a fair amount of slack. I find conclusions very often to be fairly accurate, despite his apparent devotion to a particular party (in this case, Republicans, but it could just as easily have been a (D) next to his name if he were born and raised in New York). I can only assume that devotion stems from havng not yet recieved any negative impact from "his" party's policies. But since that is a transitory condition, I know he will eventually shed that baggage as well.
This kam fool, however, is just foaming at the mouth and spewing pro-zionist nonsense with no factual evidence, no personal credibility and apparently no goal other than to incite flames. For that, I give him the bwoosh award.
Congradulations, kam. I can't think of a more deserving recipient.

We all believe that war will bring us spoils. Spoils were oil. Now we can't hold the oil. We may not be able to hold any of it. Kam just doesn't know that yet.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'O')nce we start razing villages, torching fields and blowing up wells.... it'll be VERY winnable.
How is it a winnable war when we are blowing up the wells that we need to get oil from? Gee, he's smart.
I want to put out the fires of Hell, and burn down the rewards of Paradise. They block the way to God. I do not want to worship from fear of punishment or for the promise of reward, but simply for the love of God. - Rabia

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('kam30en', 'U')hhh...BULLSH*T. This is DEFINATELY a winnable war. It is only unwinnable because we're fighting a limited war. Once we start razing villages, torching fields and blowing up wells.... it'll be VERY winnable. In an energy tight world, the man sitting on the barrel will rule. The man sitting on the sidelines will have everything taken from him.

There are many other ways to win. War is the easiest (requires the least thinking), but the costliest (lives, resources, money).
I really don't understand why this thread went so far (5 pages already). Look at kam's avatar. Does he deserve so many answers?

Yet, you felt compelled to post to it as well.
You see, it's kind of like driving past a car accident. You know you shouldn't slow down and stare, but you do it anyway.
I guess that makes kam our own personal drunk who crossed the median while doing 85m/h without his seatbelt on.
