or just make Israel the 51st state, and while we are at it, might as well make it the new US Capital as well.

Russian doctrine is to have a Dragunov equipped sniper in each squad, as opposed to the American deployment of snipers in detached teams. Perhaps Venezuela is getting some Russian training in infantry tactics.

It is always funny to read this administration being afraid of other countries military spending. Just like here, 5000 rifles compare to the 190 000 lost in Iraq? One is a security risk, the other one is “oobs” problem.

John Nielsen (evidently just another Yankee Dildo Dandy with a PhD in International Relations from the University of Comedy Central at South Park) reckons Venezuela and Saudi Arabia are “vicious regimes”. On what basis?

Maybe “they killed Kenny” (the bastards), but when did either one test nuclear weapons on civilians “just because”? Or wantonly attack any other countries (many other countries) for any reason (let alone no reason)?

Is it not time to rename Washington: Tel Aviv WEST and London: Tel Aviv NORTH and Sydney: Tel Aviv SOUTH. Is there a Tel Aviv EAST

Cheney is also a puppet. Take your blinders off.

Skip the castration. Let us be men, unilke the bastards who lord themselves over us. And as for the gallows, and be satisfied with mass impeachment of the entire Executive branch. Too bad 90% of Congress needs impeachment. Promote Ron Paul shamelessly!

Interesting cartoon I saw recently. Rove dropped his puppit strings to Bush, but Cheney still holds a set. Rove was mostly interested in political corruption of the Republican party- make bush a dictator for life-there was some discussion after 9/11 to extend indefinitely the terms of the president. cheney is out to control the world for US oil companies and that company he nearly bankrupted when he was president-Haliburton

The problem is deeper than Bush & Cheney. The Democrats are already hinting that they will continue the aggression-based foreign policy that Bush built up. Come to think of it, he inherited a rather hostile foreign policy from Bill Clinton (remember Kosovo?)

When politicos crank up the polemic of removing bad leaders and democratizing the world, watch out. It’s the equivalent of a crowd of Muslims shouting “Allahu akbar!” It means we’re getting ready to perpetrate more aggression.

Our only hope, slim thought it be, is to champion the institution of the sovereign nation-state. That would return us to dialogue, and put military force in the background where it belongs.

A strong Iran is in our interest; they put Al Qaeda members behind bars. The same goes for a strong Russia, China, India, etc. Our enemies are non-national guerrilla networks, not “evil” nations.

And I agree with you, as well Tyler. Thank you for the comment.
