Team America-World Police can never sleep. Whats the purpose of this news article? Spending hundreds of billions of US taxpayers dollars is worth shooting down 4 drones?

This thread is a thanksgiving food fight between Uncle Grant and nephew Krag.

There are no answers in the Middle East because errbody insane except the Jews and the Kurds, and the gripes are tribal going back four thousand years. The West will never understand it.

Jesus alone can make peace when He returns.
