Look, Abu, this may come as a surprise to you, but while you were doing high fives, passing the hooka around and eyeing the goat in a lewd and lascivious manner, the U.S. Marines were laughing at you.
Yeah, you read that right. They were laughing at you.
You see, Abu Musab al-Suqwad, blowing up 14 Marines doesn't do shit to the war effort. Not by a long shot. Ask the Japanese. Ask the Viet Cong, the North Koreans, hell, ask the Libyans. Where did you think the "shores of Tripoli" came from?
You see, we do the mourning for the dead, Abu. Not them. Oh, they'll mourn, they're not heartless, in the long run. They'll look back one day, remember, maybe even write a book about the horror they encountered.
No, not the horror that you attempted. Our Marines will feel far more sadness about what they are going to do to you for your cowardly remote-controlled IED.
Go ahead, Abu, piss off the United States Marines.

i think you meant to say lascivious.

. . . and another thing, dear sir, the "terror tactics" of guerilla war used by the Viet Cong did wonders to advance their cause (in part because the US troops responded with such sickening and sweeping brutality that homeside support fell to sh*t). There's not as much media freedom for this particular struggle, so much of the brutality we perpetrate shall not be seen by the sensitive public. . . and as any good war historian will tell you, guerilla warfare is used because it works. The French learned that in Vietnam; the Japanese in China; the Soviets in Afghanistan; the Britons vs. the American colonies.

Guerilla warfare can only work if supported by the general public. You and I both know that. We also both know these punks don't have the public support they did in Vietnam.
They obviously have your support though.
With that said, could I interest you in a suicide vest? I'll throw in a sheet of plastic for the splatter factor at no additional charge.

Guerilla tactics work to create instability, but they do not work to push out soldiers. The Afghan-Soveit War was hardly just a war of guerilla tactics. Any military historican could tell you that much.
And you know, it may shock you Mustafa, but those acts that you've heard about in Vietnam were sometimes even made up. There is plenty of media freedom, it just so happens the opposing side would rather kill innocent children then face U.S. soldiers so media outlets have a hard time justifying sending a reporter to cover their angle of events. In fact, a few have tried they end up without a head.
If Al Qaida wished to work the media, which they are trying, they would have had guerilla tactics and not terrorist tactics. There is a difference and the difference is as clear as night and day. Most people could recognize such differences, but for some reason they evade a few.

What Mustafa does not understand is the nature of brutality in war and the nature of American troops. Unlike the Japanese, the Vietnamese, and even the colonial French, Americans do not relish brutality. We tend to avoid it because we are so overwhelmingly strong that we always look like the bad guys if we use it. But if circumstances require brutality to win, then we will be brutal. And Mustafa, you do NOT EVER want to be on the receiving end of American brutality if it is needed to win. You have no idea how horrific it can be. Ask Japan.

Amen Scott! The US military is the epitome of restraint. However, when the gloves come off, the enemy is going to get one hell of an ass-whooping.

And if any sandflea has a problem with me enjoying the pictures, they can bite me. If it was up to me, we would be shipping millions of pigs to Iraq for use in feeding prisoners and for burials.

Has anyone went to Mustafa's web site? I'm curious as to whether or not he's just a common troll or a future target at the US Army live-fire range.

Mustafa fails to understand that history has taught us how to win a guerilla war. When we have had enough of the local population, defending them, supporting them, arming them, supplying intelligence to them you simply get rid of the local populance. Boom. Sudden attitude change. Sudden realization that they were behaving wrong. Sudden desire to get along with the rest of the world. The question can be equated this way. Get it over with quickly, cheaply and finally or draw it out forever and probably have about the same amount of deaths. Also, quess what THE OTHER SIDE GETS TO DIE.
Start rebuilding a civilized middle east now or continue on with this muslim bullshit until we have to do it anyway. Give the bastards 90 days then take total control with all out war. Do these cowardly Islamofacist deserve better than the Germans or Japanese?
