Early in the morning.

Here a comment/reply from someone regarding this post. My comment: Your fucking welcome.
Other comments welcomed. I will post in this manner.

Why do you not want to see that this is a CRUSADE although your leaders had said it publicly...
This is a crusade against Islamic World...

Have you ever thought why only the Kurds are happy with the status... Let me say:
Because they are not Muslim and so they were not among the targets of this war...

And Kurds are happy because the crusaders wanted them to be so,
since they have communities living in Muslim countries which can be used as threats in the future...
So they are a part of the crusaders from now on I'm afraid...

Thanks for the democracy you sprinkled down from your cursed aircrafts...
Thanks for the human rights you scattered out of the barrels of your cursed guns...

Can't sleep so just got up and thought I would jot down some thoughts. Usually when I get up thoughts are not that cheerful and this morning is not much different.

I have thought a lot about the fighting in the middle east and really wonder if it should be allowed to come to an end that is based on "win or lose". The fight Israel is now in is starting to look like how Vietnam was fought and Iraq is going today. That being you do not know who your enemy is. Most wear no uniform, are your neighbor during the day and try to blow you up in the night. That wears and has worn out our armed forces in many cases. Our military is the finest in the world but they are trained to fight a "normal war" where there are front lines and you are facing a real army. Do we use the same tactics and plant bombs in the areas in Iraq that are causing most of the problems. You know, blow up women and children for the hell of it? After all, we have gained all of the country as far as taking ground. No, of course not. That is as wrong for us as it is for those that are doing that now.

I have gotten to the sad and depressing point where I feel there is no way to help people that are determined not to help themselves. We tried and the "grand experiment" failed. The model for success is in the north of Iraq where the Kurds run the show. They are united against having anyone meddle with their success. Now I must admit that the Kurds have been free longer and have had much more time, since 1991, to set their house in order but it seems it will never happen in the south of Iraq.
We need to leave now because the fire that is burning in Israel and Lebanon is just the tip of the iceberg. That deadly 90% you cannot see is going to get you before it is over.

Oh, by the way, get ready for 5 to 6 dollar a gallon gasoline. Welcome to what the rest of the western world pays for it.
