New roll-out (propaganda campaign) for war with Iran?

I had missed that and apologize for the error.

Apologies are neither here nor there to me.

What you should focus on is how you made the error. It's usually impatience.

Note how all but the last of these could have come easily from the mouths of Zahawiri or any other insane muslim extremist.

Bernie-

I think all the quotes you present from Mr Ledeen express at least approximations to the truth.

If they render the liberal conscience into the tremblies and challenge the self-reassuring view it has of itself as "sweet pretty things" which ought to be in bed at this time of night it has nothing to do with Zahawiri or anything else. Cricket is like that which is why umpires are necessary. The UN is, as yet, an ineffective umpire.

What's your problem with them? Darwinian evolution theory would entirely agree with the first five. And you're a Darwinian I think. Clausewitz would have agreed I think.

Somebody earlier spoke about getting the troops "out of harm's way". Well that's what troops are for isn't it? They are professional people who have volunteered to put themselves in harm's way. The Draft would be a different matter. If you got to the point, as we have, where more truck drivers are killed than military personnel you would make the brass band parades look silly.

One thing I did notice recently is Gen Petreus had a medal display on his chest which reminded me of the displays on Soviet general's chests and look what happened to them.

The guy is telling the truth. Yoy just want to be a nice guy whilst blissfully taking advantage of the spoils of war. And you are free to do that of course. But not to join an intellectual debate about the matter coming from the goody-goody two-shoes side and smearing patriots with cheap jibes and asserted insults.

By calling them insane you axiomatically grant them permission to say you are unless you claim the right to insult people as a monopoly of your side.

That headline you have stapled to your chest, featuring your heroism as Unblinking Chasm Starer, probably ought to have been typeset on something lighter than an albatross.

The idea of using suicide pilots to obliterate the skyscrapers of Manhattan originated in 1940s Berlin. "In the latter stages of the war, I never saw Hitler so beside himself as when, as if in a delirium, he was picturing to himself and to us the downfall of New York in towers of flame," wrote Albert Speer in his diary. "He described the skyscrapers turning into huge burning torches and falling hither and thither, and the reflection of the disintegrating city in the dark sky."
