THIS is the problem.


I have NEVER agreed with the "you break it, you bought it" bullshite.

Got in and removed Saddam in about 100 days with fewer than 100 casualties. Should have just left.

frick nation building. Simply say...whatever grows into the void...we can come back and remove you, too.


We could have gone back and removed 50 regimes for the cost.


You want to be a totalitarian dick and become rich while subjugating your own people? Have at it. You make us feel threatened...you are gone. Easy peezy
