When these "freedom fighters" ,as they've described by some on our campuses of "higher education" (or perhaps they are just high?), start their mantras I get really riled. Earlier today on the Glenn Beck radio program (9-12noon in Oklahoma) some useless anarchist at Berkeley was encouraging a domestic Jihad by our student populations to go after this administration.
This seditionist clod jazzed the crowd. Having lived on the west coast (left coast) for a number of years I shouldn't be surprised.
Unless I am mistaken, in times past when the Soviets or the Chinese took military action they did so with a totally commited force bent on not only defeating their opponent but basically terminating him. Didn't have to negotiate since they were already history.
Frankly, the Shiites in southern Iraq surprised me. I thought their release from being under Saddam's thumb/heel for so many years would have resulted in more of an appreciation. But once again I am wrong but only partially I do believe.
Most Iraqis are people who have lived in fear for decades. Before he was toppled, those who suffered knew the cause of that suffering. His elimination basically opened up a can of worms from the average Iraqi perspective.
Like any of us, the overwhelming majority of Iraqis have pretty much the same basic feelings and desires as we westerners. They have wives, husbands, children etc. that they care for and wish to have a good life.
It is the band of malcontents, largely young males, that are made up of persons whose advantage abruptly ended when we moved into Iraq. Transients from Syria, Iran and Saudi Arabia whose mission is to cause anarchy have entered and continue to arrive. These same vermin have been in Pakistan since the Taliban was in power. The radical Islamists have basically cornered the shakey leadership in Pakistan and are being paid by the royal family in Sauid Arabia to "allow" them to continue on.
While they have schools for hate in Pakistan for the young, they also have Wahabism is Saudi Arabia that preaches Islam above all and death to the infidel.
The reason we have a presence in the middle east at this time is partially due to that old Arab adage, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". Needless to say this is a game of musical chairs and all who go by this philosophy are aware of this. Case in point, the Iran-Iraq war in the '80s cost around 1 million lives. Sunni vs. Shiite. Now they are helping each other out.
As to destroying Iraq. Our nation is too interwoven into the globalist marketplace and our own well being is dependent upon an ever-growing dependence on foreign investment and goods. Basically, we've given the farm away. But enough persons in this country are still living well enough off of the blood pouring from our own self inflicted domestic wound.
Anyway, move the troops back out of Fallujah (sp?) and carpet bomb the place into pebbles. Provide 24 hours for residents to leave. The warrior age men need to be incarcerated by allied forces until theycan be checked out. If nobody comes out then they'll already be buried. Something can be done with the actual soil to make this city uninhabitable - perhaps a tactical nuke.
The Romans, after having had enough of Carthage, erased the city. To this day nothing can be grown there. I'd suggest a similar action. This act alone will force a wakeup call to enough of the indigenous population and their leaders as it is a brutal response that equate to extermination.
What to do with all of those residents (excepting the militants) if there are any? Send them to a Arabic secular nation.
More scenarios to follow ... the Saudi's, Pakistan and Iran
