I fear it's going to be the U.S. and Israel vs. the rest of the world.

That is what Israel andIslamic terrorists want. Doesn't have to be that way. Israel has the power to take care of her own security but doesn't want to. Israel wants Americans to be human shields for the actions of the IDF. The terrorists want us tied to the neck to Israel because it creates situations such as we see in Bahrain and sidetracks America's war on terror and advancing America's interests.

I suppose he should be still I don't see how people here knowing how tense things are in Bahrain is a threat to national security but oh well.

Supporting the IDF publicly is more important to "Americans" it seems than 50,000 protesting us near an air field which is pivotal to our operations in America's war on terror.

Incredible...I'm leaving for Bahrain in about 2 weeks to work for Lockheed on an F-16 mod. contract. I hope this doesn't delay things for me.

The IDF is killing our enemies if they get Israel a lot of that terrorism will be redirected towards us.

True, you'd actually get more of them, but a daisy cutter so much more Pyrotechnic, if you know what I mean. Neutron bombs are too neat and somewhat anticlimatic. Although, the sight of all though protesters barfing their intestines out from radiation poisoning has a certain quaintness to it.

Typo, there...I dropped the apostrophe...It should read The counter is Psyop's. Is that real formica?

And yes it is real formica (I think...) The reason I asked you to check is that some unscrupulous subcontractors have resorted to purchasing Stuckey's Pecan Logs and "heat forming" them into fiberglass boat hulls and other commodities.

You know, I had no real clue what you were referring to when you asked about the formica. Before I make a complete ass of myself, what was that a reference to? I must have missed something, and my sureptitious attempt to draw it out failed.

*chuckles. You Pysop-ed yourself! I just was trying to pun the use of the word "counter" as in table top. Not too deep. The original use of your Nom de Guerre was Plural and so I had to either accuse you of being cloned, or turn it into a possessive...I chose the latter...

I wouldn't put responsibility of destabilizing the entire Wahhabi terrorist machine on one Freeper!

I apologize if the reference to Stuckeys logs went over your head. Think of badly shrink-wrapped, cylindrical Fruitcake that has a white spacklelike binder and dubious nut fragments impacted on the surface...I've never heard of anyone actually eating one, but they used to have big displays of them at the Stuckeys chain of restaurants throughout the South. Just looking at this item made you want to see what form it would take at about 800 degrees...It might be some sort of super plastic...Never took the time to find out...

On second thought, why not a blast enhanced 10 megaton device sort of like a self cleaning oven?

I like it. Instead of "Fat Boy" we'll name it "Easy off" and have a perky housewife hit the bomb release. It would make a great commercial wouldn't it? "Tired of greasy Arabs, and stuck-on Palestinians stinking up your kitchen? One blast of lemon-fresh 'Easy Off' will wipe your cares away" [pan out, bright flash in distance].
