Train -- Egad! A vile sucker punch! Who would have imagined this? I think the people who supported the evil Saddam should just kill themselves or something. Give Rummy my regards when he jumps off the Grand Canyon. Some people have short memories....
Spiderman -- The US will not invade N Korea BECAUSE it has nuclear weapons. Saddam's big mistake was to disarm. What a fool.
In my country when I grew up there was plenty of terrorism, bombs planted and so forth. I remember school drills for evacuating in case of fire, bombs and attacks with guns. I got used to it, so will you.
I also think - that you broke it, now you fix it.
Iraq is going to still cost you a packet in blood and money. And I guarantee you that if it is not fixed, then all will be the worse for it. Pretty much all that has been said would go wrong has gone wrong...and will get worse.
Let me put forward an alternative theory to the "flypaper" theory :
Astranbrulth's "carcass" theory. Instead of the flies getting caught on the flypaper, they are drawn instead to Iraq's carcass, where the aroma of rotting meat defies the US efforts to ressurect the dead animal. Then, after many expensive operations that open the animals belly and internal organs, the whole thing is abandoned, and the flies that are let in are fruitful and multiply greatly.
I just hope you lot have some *really* good surgeons.
Nightstalkers -- That is what *should* have been done. Finished off Bin Laden, reconstructed Afghanistan, gone home, together with the troops in the rest of the Middle East. If Democracy spreads East, great.
If it doesn't, well, tough.
