I tend to favor soft power.

Build a McDonalds on every street corner in Riyadh. Put a Coke in the hands of every Arab in Cairo. Make sure that the NBA and NFL are available to every person in the Middle East.

I don't know if she'll ever recover. She probably somewhat blames herself. All those people were there to see her and now 22 of her fans are dead. She has nothing to be sorry for but I can't imagine what that girl is feeling right now.

You won't hear me arguing against that. War should be ugly, it should be mean. There's no room for compassion and empathy on the battleground.

But unfortunately, that is an extreme minority viewpoint. The fact that we get damn near live pictures and videos spread via social media of collateral damage ensures that the bleeding hearts win the propaganda battle.


hi bleeding heart downvoters

You pretty much described Bahrain. That's where all the Saudis go to drink and do other shite that's not allowed in Saudi Arabia.

Watching Fox as I get ready for work. Reported there. I'll find one when I get to the office if it's not posted before then.

How thin is the air up there on your virtue signaling high horse. After a dog bites you more than once you might have to put it down.

After a dog bites you, you want to kill every dog on earth? Rational

I'm sure you know this, but Islam doesn't need you to devoutly defend it day after day.

I just wonder how many of those politicians and media douche bags served in the Second World War or Korea?

Sherman, one of my least favorite Americans in history, said it best, "War is hell and it's glory is moonshine."



The public saw pics like this in the Civil War quite a bit, that War went on until the Confederacy surrendered absolutely.
