#1 I think Britain has promoted this POS to a position above his capability. Maybe he can get another one, perhaps in Barbados, closer to his capabilities. In the meantime, don't the Brits have a bulldog or two they can assign to Afghanistan? This POS is a nervous parakeet.

#4 neither could the Iraq war, in your not-so-humble-opinion. Looks like you're a poofed up fool and possibly 0-for-2? Why should we listen to designated hostages? Your boots on the ground do good work, when allowed and given the resources they need. I instinctively distrust double-named men as poofters and self-esteem-inflated losers

#6 DRUDGEREPORT > AL-QAEDA: US ECONOMIC CRISIS EQUALS MUSLIM VICTORY; + TOPIX > NEW AL QAEDA TAPE SAYS ENEMIES OF ISLAM ARE FACING DEFEAT.

And vis ADAM GHADAN = "American Taliban" no less.

Again, Radical Islam is weakened but NOT absolutely defeated nor incapable of victory; whereas the USA is winning/prevailing but its domination of the future OWG-NWO + Victory over Islamism is NOT yet absolut assured.

The "WAR OUTSIDE OF IRAQ" > tantamount to a NEW HISTORIC MUSLIM CONQUEST OF THE ASIAN MAINLAND, as indic by RUSSO-GEROGIAN WAR, ANTI-CHRISTIAN VIOLENCE IN INDIA vv HINDUS [fear of return and domin of UK-West], + SUPPOR BY MANY CHIN NETTERS FOR UNILATER CHIN PLA MIL INTERVENTION IFF THE US INVADES PAKISTAN AND RUSSIA PROVES MILPOL UNABLE TO STOP THE ISLAMIST DESTABILIZATION AND TAKEOVER OF ITS FORMER CENTRAL ASIAN SSRS [ + New Russ Breakup]. RADICAL ISLAM IS NOT WAGING ITS JIHAD ONLY FOR "PARITY".

Mainstream America = Amerika also has RUSSIA's subtle hints about NO NEW COLD WAR OR RETURN TO ANY NEW COLD WAR VV THE USA.

IOW, BY ALL THE ABOVE, and unless Washington DC desires to see a NEW NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN MAP OF ASIA [pro-Islamist], THERE HAS TO BE A BE-ALL, END-ALL CLEARLY CONCLUSIVE DETERMINATIVE WINNER IN THIS MAN'S GWOT!

* ION REDDIT > RUSSIA TODAY > INTER-NATION MIL CONFLICTS OVER ARCTIC RESOURCES MAY BEGIN TO OCCUR AFTER 2020.

Also from REDDIT [WND 04/2001] [paraph] > LED BY RUSSIA + CHINA, MANY OF THE USSR's NOW SOVEREIGN FORMER CENTRAL ASIAN REPUBLICS ARE FORMING A POWERFUL COMBINED MILITARY REACTION FORCE TO DEFEND THE REGION AND TAKE THE OFFENSIVE AGZ MILITANT ISLAMIC FORCES.

#8 "US strategy is doomed to FAILURE" > as long as the USA limits its troops to only IRAQ + AFGHANISTAN, regardless of magnitude = level of Mil-National commitment, IRAN + MILITANTS BELIEVE THEY WILL SUCCEED AND GET THEIR NUKES.

IOW, NUCLEAR IRAN + NUCLEAR JIHAD + NUCLEAR ISLAMISM, etc. = ASIA IS JUST A "WALKING DEAD MAN" ABOUT TO VOLUNTARILY OR FORCIBLY CONVERT TO ISLAM/ISLAMISM.

Somebody better tell RAND-MCNALLY, etc. to start coming up wid new ISLAMIST PLACE-AREA NAMES for their NEW MAP OF ISLAMIST ASIA = EURASIA.
