Armchair Freeper Playing With Plastic Soldiers and Planes

I know that I shouldn't, but sometimes I go to that "evil" site. Sometimes I go just to get a laugh. Other times I go to see what "tinfoil" hat I need to put on as they make their dastardly plans to take over "Amurika" (like getting their take on the attempted "reddening" of CA).

Sometimes, however, I discover a post over there that makes it clear that I, (and WE) are on the right side of humanity.

According to this Freaker, all we need to do is kill more of those "I-RAK-I's" and flowers and chocolate will flow forth like honey.

Yes it is evident that "War is Hell". Especially to those fighting it diligently from the comfort of their computer screens.

"According to Gallup, 59 percent of Americans say it’s time to start bringing the troops home. I think I’m one of them.

I think if we’re going to hamstring our troops in Iraq, and doom them to the daily grind of improvised explosive devices, we might as well bring them home. They’d be more usefully deployed along our border with Mexico.

See, it’s the “go big or go home” principle, a variation on the “is you is or is you ain’t” theme. If you’re going to fight a war, fight a war. If you’re not, let’s get back in the barracks.

To fight an insurgency, you’ve got to destroy the community and people who are sheltering them. It’s that simple. There’s no other way. There’s no other way. You can’t pass out enough Hershey bars to turn people against them.

When you face bad guys in battle, you’ve got to be a bigger bad guy. The fellow with the biggest fist is the one left standing.

And right now we’ve outlawed our bigger fist.

When one of our convoys is bombed, bomb the neighborhood where it occurred. Yes, “innocent” people might be killed. That’s what happens in war. But after that happens a few times, the neighborhoods will stop tolerating the insurgents and they will lose their base of operation. When you fear the B52s more than you fear the jihad boys the balance of power is going to shift."

One thing Lonsberry and seemly everyone else forgets is, Vietnam was lost by the democrats in Congress. We won the war on the ground, the war was "lost" when the RATS cut off the funding for the South's military. The north knew that the left in America was working to help defeat freedom, after all these were the same folks that were against America supporting England against Hitler until he invaded their precious ussr. So yes Westmoreland made mistakes, but always remember the communists didn't win on the battlefield they won because the RATS betrayed America and the South Vietnamese

It's been said that the Arab world is either at your throat, or at your feet.

For the sake of Mankind's future, I propose a third alternative...

I want them 6' under our feet.

When they prove that they can expand yourselves beyond the 12th century, maybe we can be "tolerant"...until then, they are a threat to Humanity!

It sounds racist, but they are like ignorant savages with way too much wealth and power for their society to be able to handle!

Flame away, but it's the truth.

And of course the obligatory KKKristian "kill them all post"

Yes! let's just bring the troops home and wait for the next attack on our shores.

What Fools to have such a microwave mentality. This war will go on as long as there is one Muslim alive.

5. Hard to tell who he's referring to with that quote

sure sounds autobiographical.

4. I am sure that not one of these morans

ever saw a real dead body mangled by a RPG. Saw human entrails spilled onto the dirt with the person still alive. Had a shot fired at them in anger. They would defecate themselves. No one that has ever seen such things would ever want to see them again. Cowards and fools.

Hitler said EXACTLY the same thing about Jews and communists being responsible for Germany's loss in WWI. Some things never change.

7. A glimmer of intelligence on that site.

"We fight wars to win them. If nobody in the administration or at the War College can figure out how to win this, then bring the boys home."


my commentary
This was not a war, intelligence was made up and Iraq was not a direct threat to the United States. This person needs to look at the mission accomplished sign and ask "What was the mission". Does anyone really know what the mission actually is/was other than seize Iraqi oil fields? There were not WMD's and now we all know that for sure. Once again we have sacrificed American lives, killed others, made enemies for no discernible purpose other than Corporate profit.

There is no win in the war, the Pentagon probably understood that going in and you can bet they know that now. Somewhere in the Pentagon are new "Pentagon Papers" this time there is not a Daniel Elsburg to release them. Such a waste. Shortstop is on the right track he needs to ask more questions. He is probably a disruptor.
