They - Iraq - learned from the best!

But we're so tolerant here:  freedom of expression and freedom of association are rights.

Let's see.  We are funding Al Qaeda in Syria, and now there is a resurgence of Al Qaeda in next door Iraq.  I am certain these two events are unrelated since Al Qaeda is well known to have been crushed as a global force by OPapaDoc and now can operate only on a local basis.  Maybe we should send more money to the Al Qaeda forces in Syria so they'll tell their Iraqi brothers to make nice in Iraq.  That's the way it works, isn't it?  Isn't it?

Gonna tell you something I was told once.

"Sir, the rebels are retreating."
"Ok, who screwed up and how?"

So you must be Nat'l Guard?....hubby did 2 tours in Iraq and son did one....my prayers are with you :0001:

Nope. I'm just an old soldier who can't seem to take his combat boots off. I've been contracting on-and-off since I retired from the Army in '99.

I wonder when the lies will stop and truth begin, even as grim as the truth may be. And then I remember that for 70 years, the reign of terror in Russia called itself "the people's government." We have so far to fall, yet we are falling fast and Hell yawns to receive us.

After 41 years my hubby finally took his off....so I know what you are going through.
