As it stands, there is no one left to surrender.

There are like three governments.

Worse.

It’s like the UMF gang.

Ugly Mother frickers


And yes, that’s a real gang.

Not big K himself but definitely his third or fourth underling. This whole thing has been a disaster from the very beginning.

We killed so many top people on the first strike that it took WEEKS for us to even figure out who to talk to. Then Israel killed that guy too!

Thank you Bibi, very cool!

This is nothing new. You deal with all three and figure out who your guy is. You give him arms and access to intelligence while you prevent the other powers from dealing with the other two.

That's the way these things are handled.

I hate to trigger you, but more of them need to be killed. Somebody more agreeable will pop up, wait & see.

This. Eventually they'll realize if a peace is not made, they'll die too. That's when an agreement will be reached.

In the Middle East? With radical Islamicists? What could go wrong?

Man.

Who would have thought a Middle East regime change could result in a power vacuum with unpredictable outcomes/negotiations because of various factions looking for power.






Take kharg island and be done.

That plan is working great so far. Maybe we don't understand these people?

Now would it perhaps have been a better idea to keep a Saddam Hussein in there, after breaking his spirit just right, personally I think so. But I guess that’s nowhere near the correct subject.

This is also a good time to remind the muh CIA bros that these sorts of frickups fixing frickups is how this shite happens and not some grand master plan from the outset.

The worst thing that could happen is that the US could elect a democrat as president. Just ask Hosni Mubarak.

Totally unpredictable. Regime change has been a massive success every other time.

You will learn that it will be better that none of them are kept alive. The citizens are going to need to step in at some point and wreck shite.
