I was initially leery about the arms deal, and still am to a degree, but what you've said has shown me its relation in regards to the greater picture of the geo-political situation. It's easy to get lost in all the lies, hearsay and bullshit being pumped out there, thank you for sweeping some of the debris away and adding some clarity to what's actually going on.

But they went to journo-school, and learned all about meta-narratives, so they're obviously our intellecual superiors. As for the Ralph Peters article, those crimes in Santa Cruz were cleary just oppressed victims of the Patriarchy(TM) expressing their far more moral culture, while any crime commited by a soldier is proof that the military is the domain of bloodthirsty Nazis. /sarc Great work. When can we expect you on Fox News? Or even CNN (there's still hope for them, I won't mention a certain outfit with worse ratings than a community access channnel)?

Thank you Iggy. You explained everything so that even the chronic libs could understand if they try really hard. Why they just can't seem to grasp the importance of what our military is doing will never be understood by most. We will always stand by and support our military in the fullest sense of the words and, yes, I am always grateful that I was not born a liberal! :lol: It is too bad you are not on T.V. so more of America could see you and listen to you.
