    Probably wise.

    Won't do you much good when your cash in made worthless though.

    Simple. I do not care what anon people on forums think of ME. I am never the subject. Nor are you.

    So.

    Please return to something approaching the topic.

    Yes, I'm aware of the effects of Agent Orange. I'm sure those who ordered its deployment were also well aware. I'm also sure that the Israelis who smugly claim that they legitimately used white phosphorus as an 'illuminant' in Gaza city (in broad daylight), were only too aware of the horrific effects it has on the human body.

    Really? Why though? Surely it can only help shock people into a sense of the reality of what their Gov's do, if we stop poncing around sanitising everything that is real?

    Agent Orange or Herbicide Orange (HO) is one of the herbicides and defoliants used by the U.S. military as part of its herbicidal warfare program, Operation Ranch Hand,[1] during the Vietnam War from 1961 to 1971.​

    Yep. It is especially good if you have any pesky dense forests nearby.

    I also use white phos as sugar sprinkles on my frosties.

    Obama's mistake was underestimating the incompetence of the US military, and believing their assessments of the situation.
    Still Afghanistan and Iraq are Bush's Wars, he launched them, he lost them.

    No Afghanistan is Obama's now. He tripled the troops and is 5 years in. I like how you Liberals are covering for his warmongering and for his incompetence and lying over it. He said " I will increase the troops and remove them in a year" Democrats around the country heard it and then ate their convictions. Five years later we have 65,000 troops there instead of the 32,000 that were there when Obama took office.

    You Democrats used to be war protestors. Now I guess you are just fine with it.

    Unfortunately wars are dynamic and unpredictable. Obama's intentions were no doubt the result of the best advice he was given at the time by his military advisors. Obama is not a military strategist, so blaming him for acting on advice given by someone else is foolish.

    "Can't think of anything, offhand, other than land and ports for military bases."

    Me neither. Latakia is a second-class port at best.

    Sorry dude. We already know. We got literally nothing out of it, so by definition it was an utter failure.

    Pathetic comment, lacking in rational thought.

    Warmongers aren't completely surrounded by thousands of rocket batteries, which fire sporadically at the warmonger's state. I can't think of a single "warmonger" in all of human history who found themselves in this situation. Your statement makes no sense.

    So we are supposed to ignore the connections between Palestine, Iran, Syria, Jordan, Libya, Lebanon, Iraq, and Egypt over the decades? Just focus on Israel and the US eh? The problem with those who claim this is a land issue between the Israelis and Palestinians, is that they have no answer as to why all of the above countries are so concerned over this land issue between 2 peoples not their own. I suspect it has nothing to do with land, and everything to do with religion.

    Warmongers are usually sat with their feet up nowhere near any violence.

    Anywhere.

    Fact.

    Warmongers insert themselves into situations based on ideology and/or religion, sort of like how the Arab countries have inserted themselves into a land dispute between Palestine and Israel. And they have done this violently, from the beginning in 1948, and never stopping since. My question is why do these Arab nations militarily (and every other possible way) intervene in this land dispute, when there are many land disputes involving Muslims all over the world in which they have not intervened on anywhere near the level (if at all) that they have done in Israel?

    My point stands.

    When you boil it all down, this is what is really comes down to.

    You are either in their 'club' or you are a pawn(to them).

    Bad news.

    We are on the pawn list.

    No, I have no religion, my interest in the region is oil flow, because at this point, humanity depends on it, not just the US. So I am interested in stability in the region, and I am against random groups of armed men dictating how that business is done based on their religious ideas. And I am against govts turning a blind eye and/or supporting these men. I'm on the US/Israel side for humanitarian reasons. I can't deduce what reasons that the Arab countries that are not Palestine (because I really do see the Palestinian's complaint, and it is warranted) have on the Palestine/Israeli issue that is not based on religious reasons.

    It doesn't matter to them what you or I are interested in.

    Or any number of us.

    Don't you see this?

    We all do not matter to a tiny few.

    I agree with the first bolded sentence phrase. Strategy is about knowing how to win wars. And the second, Obama remains blameless with the sycophants on the left no matter how poorly he does. No doubt you blame....well, you fill in the blank.
