But even before attacking here, Saddam had fired chemical weapons against seven other villages at least, and arrested thousand of Kurds, who were later buried alive. It was a genocidal campaign, named Al-Anfal, which killed 180,000 out of 3 million Iraqi Kurds,” he recalled, while showing snapshots of that tragedy collected by the museum.

Here's your hero in action, not including part about the use of poison gas.

This is a direct result of the 2003 (Bush) war.

Looking back at the Booshes, I think the Iraq war was just retaliation for Hussein's assassination attempt on George HW. 911 had nothing to do with Iraq. Iraq, at the time, countered Iran, perfect.

And, let's not forget the Savings & Loan scandal of the 80's. Neil Boosh was at the center of that. FF to 2008, GW Boosh presides over the morgage meltdown. Pure coincidence.

Well, we have to take the lead in formulating a resistance from foreign invasion. It is coming. The barbarians want to take America down and the Army battle concepts are obsolete. They are not going to be the big player. Only a resistance format, Swiss style, will work, and this is where we can indeed gain initiative and leadership... but it will be hard because first it means the military as we know it will have to be dissolved and completely reformed.

Are you kidding? Christianity is practically finished right here.

“Only a resistance format, Swiss style, will work...”

Verrrrry interesting! Well, the hallmark of Swiss armed preparedness is reservists keeping their rifles & ammo at home. We don’t have that, but we do have AR-15’s & other semi-autos selling like hotcakes since Obama came to power, & especially since early last year. Ammo sales are through the roof, & CCW permits are proliferating.

The other Swiss hallmark is...organization (the Alps help too; Hitler’s panzers were stymied). We need more states like Texas which recognize local militias as patriots, not criminals. This is where the U.S. will unfortunately divide even further between liberal gun-hating states, and states where gun ownership is normal & respected.

I’m glad I live in the South on that count. Range time makes me feel like more of a citizen. Muslims in my state keep to themselves. The Castle Doctrine is in full force here.

To drive into New York or New Jersey nowadays would be like crossing Checkpoint Charlie into East Berlin.

“Recalling now with amusement during the run-up to the Iraq invasion that the Bush admin had named a operation using the word “Crusade”.

There was a immediate uproar by the left and they had to change the name.”

That was quite the story for a short while. The only thing wrong with the Crusades was that they mostly failed. I’ve never understood why Christendom has to apologize for defending itself.

The objective in my mind is there not being an “islam” afterwards.

Two things need to happen in this world for humanity to progress, either islam reforms, or it ends...

Just watched a report in Syria. The Christians are saying that all these years under Assad the muslims were hypocrites. Now, overnight, they do not smile at them at the market but scowl. Just like in Nazi Germany once Hitler got in power, bam, the attitudes were revealed.

Mark my words, with gun control and all, it will be the same here.

The other evening I passed a local Indian restaurant. Gathered outside were three men who were Middle Eastern in appearance, obviously foreign, not American. Two of the three were bearded. One (fatter) one was half-seated on some ledge near the outdoor dining area and he had his leg resting on it such that the sole of his shoe was exposed to passing pedestrian traffic. None of these men were smiling, in fact, they looked rather hostile. Knowing what it means in their culture to expose the sole of one's shoe, I wondered what they were trying to communicate to the people around them. Think I'm being paranoid? I'm seeing more and more of these people (and their women in the "traditional" dress) in my general neighborhood every day.
