Not a very well guarded secret.

Since the arab-muslim religion/cultures are irrational, it must eventually come to a military defeat for ENOUGH of them, to be convinced.

Diplomacy works better, when concrete, recent examples are laid down. Iraq seems to be intransigent, not willing to heed Afghanistan.

I expect the rest of them (all?) will be willing to take heed, when the recent examples are Afghanistan and Iraq.

Coming to a (war) theater near your region, at the time and place of our chosing. Just as promised. Arabs and muslims need (to be taught) to think like 1945 issue Germans and Japanese.

I seriously doubt they will ever make great cars and video-cameras, however. They cannot even build their own airports, refineries or dams.

To me, it is sort of like a game of seven card stud "high-low" poker. Pretty soon, you can no longer declare "both." Rule change time.

Our military equipment shipments indicate the game is getting interesting; analogous to the US showing some real high up cards.

Did you ever see an Iraqi pack of cigarettes?

My brother brought back a pack and gave it to me after he was there in '91 with the 2nd Marine Division.

Sorry looking thing, picture of a guy with a turban on the front, inside twenty crudely hand rolled marijuana joint looking "cigarettes" that tasted really, really, bad.

It was right then and there I realized that a country that can't even make a modern looking cigarette is no match for the USA(as long as the GOP is in charge).

That sentence should read: Diplomacy works better, when concrete standing as buildings, is returned to its original state... that of dust!
