    Re: Global War on Terror 8 - Winter is Coming

    Oh, my, a two-fer!

    A knife-wielding clown wearing big floppy shoes chased a teenager through an Upper East Side subway station Wednesday, authorities said.

            Wow, that site is a goldmine. :

            Angela Merkel pledges allegiance to Al-Qaeda and ISIS

            John McCain desperately wants to help his ISIS friends, calls on U.S. to attack Syria and go to war with Russia

            Hillary Clinton strategist says “kill” Julian Assange, because “a dead man can’t leak stuff”

            UN humanitarian convoy strike was “a well-prepared hoax”

            Imagine if Russia had a less moderate leader than Vladimir Putin

            Here’s why Donald Trump’s defamation proposals actually protect free speech

            NSA whistleblower says DNC hack was not done by Russia, but by U.S. intelligence

Even leaving aside moral considerations, I don't think it's in our national interest for instance to completely disengage in Syria and let Assad, Putin, and al-Baghdadi drive millions more refugees west to destabilize Europe.
              Then we can at least stop funding them, for crying out loud. Heck, this has been happening since the USSR invaded Afghanistan... Every single administration, including Reagan, is responsible for this mess.

                But you have to somehow silence or at least subdue the fear-mongers, and that is a difficult task as long as the strategy works.

                  Today is V. V. Putin's 64th birthday. What country is his present?

                  Just make him Tsar and get it over with!!

                  Possibly a coincidence it is also the Anniversary of the Battle of Lepanto (1571) where the forces of Christendom defeated the Ottoman Empire.

                            You mean the Trump Office? That was covered in the campaign thread as was the fact that Democrats raised $10k in 40 minutes for repairs.

                            But yeah sure...nothing

                              Listening to Col. David Hunt on Howie Carr on way home, he says there are 6000 or so US troops in Iraq right now. When did that happen?

                                About a year ago, due to the ISIS conflict. Mostly, US forces are supposed to act as advisors and trainers for Iraqi forces.
