Yup anyone who hates Americans and capitalism and wants to kill innocent men women and children are dillweeds. It's an official term. I had it licensed in the State of Maryland.
They were USED to success in the Cold War.
Yup, just like the "Star Wars" program, NATO, The Stealth Fighter Program, The Los Angeles Class Submarine program and the SeaWolf program and every other tool that could be used to end the biggest threat to mankind from a terrestial threat....it was called the Cold War.
My point was only that be careful who gets installed..
We all saw Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam in the eighties.. and CIA working with the Mujahadeen in the Soviet - Afghani war..
I guess it's a lose lose situation.. you just have to hope that whoever gets installed doesn't turn out to be worse than the last one.. which as you mentioned with the Shiites.. could be a very real possiblity
Absolutely, the Shiites are another group who don't mind sacrificing tens of thousands of civilians for their causes...not to mention their oppressive religious beliefs.
