    Than of course, on the subject one has to ask the question - how did this grow to such proportions if its true?  I said "if" its true, because the facts show it to be bullshit, in order to exacerbate the war like conditions to try to justify an occupation presence.  Nothing justifies the presence in the region, and nothing will justify any "surge."

    So Im curious V.  When exactly do you "buy" what the Govt is saying?  When they claim victory is nigh, you say its propoganda bs to justify their "aggression".  When, on the other hand, they indicated they are having difficulties, you claim its justification for their war machine. 
     
    So you see, V?  There doesnt seem to be any scenario under which you "decide" what they are saying is true. It must be that you are the sole degterminant of the truth, no matter whether its happening thousands of miles away from you or in your neighbor's basement.
     
    Tell me V, when I claim to think Jennifer Anniston is hot, am I just covering for my underlyinng sexual confusiion?  Or perhaps I am betraying myself as Hollywood stalker?  It can only be one or the other, right, and only YOU know the TRUTH!

    We have another vza syndrome with fleming now, has it reduced to this? The fact of the matter is fleming that I do not give a shit what they say, they do not belong in Afghanistan nor Iraq. I know, I know, it is a hard concept for you to grasp, but the USA does not own the world - understand?
     
    When an invading army makes statements everything it says is a lie, the reason it invaded, its stated goals for the invasion, and what is really taking place in the region. All of its media, and the media of its partners becomes a chorus line, that sings the same tune. Even if it tells the truth in a given instance, it is because it fulfills its stated "goals." That is the "nature" of war, that you say you know so much about, but do not know shit.
     
    As an aside, for those who think the USA is involved in some nobel cause here, let me disabuse you of that misconception.  As one small example I will make a prediction for you - you say you like RAWA, it is a revolutionary organization.  You take a look at what it is saying -
     
    http://www.zcommunications.org/znet/viewArticle/21306
     
    Let me tell you what some of the acts will be if there is a consolidation and "stabilization" of power under the USA, they will kill these women. Yes, you read right, they will kill them. Just like they killed all of the individuals of revolutionary potential in Iraq when they put Saddam in power. So, you better understand what is taking place here, because if you think the USA is a savior and liberator (just like it was in Iraq), and all it wants to do is crush the Taliban, you are one sick person. Just thought I would mention this, because the supporters of this aggression cannot think their way out of a paper bag.
