Ok, just checking. You're consistent.Braddock wrote:
I think it's a big shit storm of a mess but before we start talking about ill-fated attempts to go in and do something I think countries like China need to stop playing ball with the people in charge in Sudan. It sounds cruel but it's a basic fact that enough support for a cause must already exist before any external assistance can be expected to produce positive results. The Sudanese need to be prepared to stand up for themselves and try and tackle the shit that's going on in that country ...the problem with most of Africa is that it always gets help from outside and never learns to stand on it's own feet. There are smarter ways of helping countries than blowing the shit out of it or sending in troops with nice blue hats who aren't allowed to fire their guns.Pug wrote:
Okay Braddock. What's your stance on Darfur then?
Eh, a few less terrorists at the expense of several tens of thousands of dollars. The US takes a pretty clear stance on terrorism. This is just a continuation of that policy.
The death and/or injury of innocents is tragic. They probably did not deserve that (my sympathy hovers around zero for terrorist supporters, though).

How then could the US planes magically see they were terrorists?...oh yes, and they can magically see that they were US planes. even if they were...
Fuck Israel
I love it when people use the phrase 'half the world away' in the age of global transportation, shipping and electronic communication.

Read the 911 commission report. This kind of thing is common. This is the method Bill Clinton used to try to kill Osama Bin Laden. These kind of strikes keep the targets stressed and always on the run.
terrorist supporters ? what about peaceful peasants and tribesmen who happen to live there ?!!? It's not like cruise missiles know the difference...RAIMIUS wrote:
