I'm sure there lots of places that the people would like us to attack.
Them russians dont like Putin and the french must take that woossie Chirac.
And now that we did so fine... ( we did so fine! )
And there's other nasty leaders in line.
Let's go and, help Ruanda,
That would be a good place to start!
BOMB BOMB BOMB BOMB BOMB BOMB BOMB

in terms of oppression, it'd have to be Sudan

North Koreans are starving en masse, but apparently they love their KJI... so while they might be oppressed by the bonds of communism, they might not know it

Hopefully a full scale withdrawal and concentration upon natinal defence, however, given that Bush conducts military strategy in the manner of an over zealous game of "pin the tail on the donkey", the US ought to invade Iran, and N.Korea.

OUCH! Too close to the truth for comfort.
Unless the Dems develop a proper Tough Guy strategy, they ain't going to return as a viable political force.
The tail gets pinned on the Donkey, alright...

PS: voted for Sudan.

On that point, the only US attack I would sanction would be to remove Mugabe and return Zimbabwe to UN, or British control as a mandate, for a little.

Nice philosophical point incidentally, military strategy for the modern age....:p

Well, I was thinking that the US should invade Tahiti, just because it looks nice.

It wouldn't be much fun, though. Any French troops would surrender as soon as the US Marines appeared on the horizon in their amphibious assault ship.

We'll attack whatever country is convient for us, that's how it always is with war sadly enough.

"Oh Germans invading? Nah we'll hang back on this one, here's some shit to tide you over. Damn they're attacking us, ATTACK!"

-20 odd years later-

"Oh Germans invading? Nah we'll hang back on this one, here's some more shit to tide you over. Damn they're attacking us, might as well attack both of them while we're at it."

Any nation has its own agenda when entering a war, the U.S. is just the easy one to make fun of because we're heros for it ;)

The war strategy to date is very simple, segregate and weaken via blockade.

Iraq was under 10+ years of sanctions etc.. before it was finally attacked and the result ends up looking like they may turn it into a fundamentalist islamist state in ongoing civil war; and as a result it seems ties between the Islamic states may increase.

North Korea doesn't appear to have the technological edge. It is hard to tell what you would do in North Korea? It just doesn't seem to make sense. Maybe it is just my lack of knowledge on North Korea. Starving people triplets being rounded up, extravagant living communist leader with a harem? Maybe I just don't get it.

I think the lack of a state department is a good sign that you may be invaded. Or when they tell everyone to leave, etc..

Canada and Mexico and the US are becoming more and more integrated, in reality there is a North American Union of sorts.

Invading Iran cause they are getting 1950's technology all on their own seems sorta a lost cause. It creates a new identity of paranoia to create 'terror' in the minds of the weak.

Iran of course is the talk of the town of course being a peace loving person I could only hope that reason will win out and mutally benificial arangments can be created.

As for Sudan, sure it does have allot of oil but it is not like they are withholding it.

Personally I favour good relations over occupation but maybe that is just my human side speaking.

The US military has enough things to worry about when they don't have 'command' of the situation if for instance they still have been unable to find Osama... or calm public opinion in Iraq about their 'good intentions' at the monting iraqi insurgency (ps 99% of insurgents (resistance)in iraq are iraqi, it is just pop opinion to make people think it is foreign agents)

The only reason Invasion plays out is when you are stopped from having movement inside an area or agression against you is being put forth, in reality, not just opinion.

The US is turning into a 'movement' fighter, more so shifting from 'communism' to 'fundamentalism' they arn't concerned with 'states' anymore now it is a story of 'capacities' controling who is allowed to be followed, it is political b.s.

If they were concered about corruptiont they'd send the ford foundation or peace corps or something and make arangments to improve the world instead they are taking the hardline and making conditions even worse and forcing miitary spending to be even higher to enable even more extreme states to form.

If they really had an issue with any particular visible leader they coudl easly do an assasination and cover it up saying it was an independant act etc..

So it is ideology but as a lover of choice and freedom it seems wrong to tell other people how they should be, but that is government ain't it.

Honestly the US should be working towards having greenland included in a north american union. and purchasing it from the EU etc... as well as the french territories of the pacific and atlantic, if they could get away with it. This may expand their territorial waters and improve thier reputation as a fair dealer rather than a war monger. while consolidating the territorial imperialism in a lasting form rather than short term, that is if those areas were interested . Atleast get greenland so you can sink them if they arn't (bad joke) US should buy up the islands. and stick to well crafted assasinations and strategic terrorist attacks, rather then war crimes. IF they can't be linked to an attack then they can't be whined about for it. But I really don't beleive in the militant part.. we should all live in peace.

The us could have saved billions on a truce with al qaeda and allowed a democratic process to occur in afghanstan rather then stregnthening the mujahdeen

Iranian Leader to Travel to Cuba and Venezuela Before UN General Assembly Meeting
Western Hemisphere Policy Watch
(30 Aug 05) - New York will not be the first stop which Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will travel in his first foreign visit as Iran's newly elected president. Scheduled to attend the summit of the United Nations General Assembly in New York in September, Ahmadinejad will instead be making a stop in Cuba and Venezuela before heading to the United States for the UN summit, according to the Iranian news agency, Farda News.

(Photo) Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro meets with Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in Tehran May 9, 2001. Castro urged Iran during the trip to help it defeat the U.S. "as you toppled the Shah" in 1979. Castro also said, together, Cuba and Iran would bring America "to its knees."
Ahmadinejad would have been to the United States, to participate at the meeting of the UN general assembly. However, advisors to the conservative Iranian president have apparently advised him against his debut on the international scene in the country that Iran often refers to as the "Great Satan."
"Ahmadinejad on his trip to New York will be making a stop in Caracas to meeting with Hugo Chavez [the Venezuelan president] and after that to Havana to meet with [the Cuban leader] Fidel Castro," said a report on Farda News. The 60th meeting of the UN general assembly is set to begin on 14 September.

Yesterday, lauding the resistance of the Cuban nation to the hegemonic policies of the US, Chairman of the Expediency Council Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said President Fidel Castro is regarded as an impressive character in contemporary history and his presence on the political scene has left a double impacts on the anti-imperialism spirit of the Cuban nation.

Here’s a tip to those young whippersnappers Sam Francis calls post-Buckley geniuses. (You know the kind. They call for non-stop war in order to gain non-stop peace.) There’s a very nice place by the name of Equatorial Guinea, somewhere below the Sahara, where most of the dirty work has already been done. Couple of thousand Marines can do the trick, and we’ll get more oil out of the place than we ever hope to get from Iraq. No, I have not been drinking.

It’s the fiefdom run by that nice guy Teodoro Obiang Nguema, who came to power by overthrowing his uncle back in 1979. In order to ensure that the wicked uncle did not in turn pull a number on him, Teodoro had him killed and then devoured his testicles. I kid you not. Teodoro is reputed to eat a lot of testicles (he believes that he absorbs their power) because he’s killed a hell of a lot of people. In fact, Teodoro is the African equivalent of Pol Pot, the Cambodian folk hero who murdered more than a third of his countrymen but had the decency not to eat their balls.
