    Nice article.

    Seems to me we could get all kinds of good target practice out there,

    and use up whatever carpet bombing stuff we have left over. :)


    Or do some baby nuke testing. :twisted:

    How about we look at doing what's right, and what works for protecting ourselves (not to mention people who don't want to be under Islamist rule).

    It seems we have no choice but to look at getting involved in these places we've hardly ever heard of.
