[QUOTE=OogalaBoogal;33271334]That's a great article. Thanks for posting it![/QUOTE] This guy is hilarious. I just read another related article of him. The first couple of paragraphs are funny indeed. [quote=Wartard] The Israelis are running out of time. The Iranians may have enough fissionable material to have their very own big red button of win on the Ayatollah's desk in two years. So what do they do? Do the Israelis launch the attack against the Iranian nuke facilities without American approval? This is the crux of the main Israeli beef with Obama right now; the fact that he won't go along with the Israeli dream strike. The US military has gamed the Persian Gulf over and over and the fact that the Iran attack is not happening means the results of those games were not very promising. In 2002, the Pentagon tried to suppress the findings of a huge US war game called "Millennium Challenge" where the US Navy (Blue Force) was pitted against a "hypothetical rogue state" (Red Force) in the region. Red Force was led by Lt. Gen. Paul Van Riper, a total bad ass, whose job was basically to play the role of the butt raped lesser nation at the hands of the mighty technology of the all powerful US Navy. Instead of following the script, this Van Riper guy went off reservation and went all asymmetrical on Blue Force's ass, an ass which consisted of a full US Navy carrier group. Though the rules stated both commanders could use any rule in the book, the brass didn't expect the shit Van Riper pulled. Once the war game was up and running Van Riper's force disappeared off radar. He relied on couriers instead of radio to stay in touch with his field officers. The US navy cryptographers were rendered useless in a single blow. He employed novel tactics such as coded signals broadcast from the minarets of mosques during the Muslim call to prayer, a tactic weirdly reminiscent of Paul Revere and the shot heard round the world. He even used carrier pigeons to deliver messages to some of his commanders. God I love this guy! He then launched a daring attack against the US Blue Force carrier group by hundreds of kamikaze speedboats some of which were armed with Chinese Silkworm anti ship missiles. I shit you not. The result was a carrier and two helo carriers sunk along with 13 other assorted ships, the worst defeat of the US Navy since Pearl. The Pentagon had a shit fit and scrubbed the whole exercise, dismissed Van Riper and replayed the whole thing this time making Blue Force 'win'. Basically, the navy brass pretended it never happened. Lunatics in speedboats apparently don't count and are considered 'cheats'.[/quote] [url]http://wartard.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-favourite-war-that-hasnt-happened_08.html[/url]

Republicans: We Want The Opposite Of What You Want.
Ok the last thing anyone should want is war. War spends countless resources that could be used for far better things. What do we get out of spending these precious resources? Death....death, death, and more death. War is a horrible thing. Countless lives have been ended and numerous families have been destroyed as a result. When does one draw the line and say "enough is enough." We need to stop fighting, put aside our damn differences, and work for the greater benefit of all. As if it wasn't obvious, the Republicans aren't helping.

Republicans absolutely love suffering and death. Especially if it's poor people, either in america or overseas.
[QUOTE=Gprimeisback;33267951]Why do Americans give any fucks about the middle east?[/QUOTE] Because they are NATO. And NATO is a group of crazy republican democrad scumbags who can't keep their nose out of peoples bussines. [QUOTE=Spybreak;33268126]Year 2014 - President Mitt Romney declares America will be the first superpower to land a man on the surface of the sun.[/QUOTE] And then sun get's destroyed by me personaly,the astronaut suffocates and explodes,and republicans get nuked.

It's the US that likes to jump the gun, due to the GOP.

War isnt going to work, atleast invasion wont. The Iranian's have spent a long time preparing for war with the united states or Israel. They have built up alot of weapons and have a massive army with a large reserve force. Not to mention Iranian militia would be HUGE due to alot of the population supporting the their countries independence. If they wanted to invade Iran, they would have to convince a entire population to give up their countries sovereignty. Iran's population is 75,000,000... that is nearly 3 times the population of Canada. Iran also has lots of cold-war era western made aircraft such as Chinooks, a massive Iranian-built fleet of Super Cobra's, and many more.
[QUOTE=Contag;33265654]I know the best way to end all of our economic problems! Start another war in the Middle East, this time with an even more connected and powerful enemy, with strong ideological underpinning! Vote Contag (R) 2012[/QUOTE] easier to fight an army than an insurgency at least their heads still aren't screwed on right tho
I now have 0 faith in all the republican candidates. Guess I'll be voting for the independent party next year
[QUOTE=areolop;33275834]the independent party[/QUOTE]If you have heard of it, it's already too mainstream for me
[QUOTE=Kung Fu Jew;33275845]If you have heard of it, it's already too mainstream for me[/QUOTE] Fine! I'll have to use the write-in and vote for my local fire chief.
Lmfao You pretty much know someone is a functioning retard when they say "waterboarding isn't torture"
Man, if republicans wanna' go to war so bad, why don't they build a army for themselves....

[QUOTE=flyschy;33276426][url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_hostage_crisis]Iran hostage crisis.[/url][/QUOTE] That was decades ago.
I dislike Iran because of the fact its a Theocracy and that nasty crackdown on those protestors. Doesn't mean we can get into a full-scale war right now with a lot of forces still in Afghanistan. This just GOP hot air, no way any sane military commander can advocate this course of action.
[QUOTE=Psychokitten;33276529]That was decades ago.[/QUOTE] [quote]Iranian government commemorates the event every year by demonstration at the embassy and burning US flag...encouraging people to chant "Death to America"[/quote]
I really. Really. Don't see a problem with that. Then again I can be called a name and not cry or engage in warfare.
[QUOTE=flyschy;33276690][/QUOTE] I dont see how thats offensive, unless you're a hardcore conservative patriot of the US of A.
[QUOTE=doonbugie2;33277459]I dont see how thats offensive, unless you're a hardcore conservative patriot of the US of A.[/QUOTE] I'd find it a little bit offensive, but I also wouldn't give a fuck. Just like if somebody decided to call me a name in school. Either way, it's hardly a reason to go to war with another nation. [editline]14th November 2011[/editline] It'd be the same kind of offensive as if someone decided to say shit about your mom.
