 File under: al-Qaeda in Arabia 

#1 Another slippery slope into a s#@!ty place. We need to stay away from Yemen, Sudan, Muscat, Oman, Somalia, etc.

#2 We need to stay away from Yemen, Sudan, Muscat, Oman, Somalia, etc.

#3 Oman (which includes Muscat) shouldn't be classified with those other places.

They the south shore of the Straits of Hormuz, and Iran is constantly trying to undermine the government (which is OK by Arab standards).

Iran gaining control of both shores of Hormuz would certainly mean a shooting war.

#4 And the Red Sea (Suez canal) is far more strategic to Europe. Let them deal with the Yemen/Somali problem.

#5 Pappy would you settle for killing them remotely? I don't want to spend any more American lives on these shit holes. Warn em. Blast em. Bounce the rubble.

#6 That's assuming that you can find them to blast them, Hellfish. How do you propose to do that?

#7 Maybe the same way they're being found in Pakland, and a bit of whatever it takes, just kill them, they can keep the rubble; no need to fight and hold the ground. Good int is a prerequisite.

#8 Meanwhile, the UAE repor wants to kick out the MACKENZIE BROS. = CANADIAN MILFORS from their CAMP MIRAGE base.

Given the Canuck legacy of being one of the Cold War's most preferred THIRD-PARTY, NATO-VERSUS-COMMIE-BLOC "UNIVERSAL" NEUTRAL NEGOTIATORS + INSPECTORS, vee UNO, what chance does the pro-Zionist-Crusader decadent immoral Imperialist USoA have???

BASE-TOO-FAR QATAR + "AMERICAN DUNKIRK/PUSAN PERIMETER II" vee US-IRAN WAR???

* NEWS KERALA > REPORT: NORTH KOREA COULD PROUCE MORE THAN 1.0MILYUHN[1.25M] CHEMICAL BOMBS.

and

* PAKISTANI DEFENCE FORUM > [ROK Think-tank] NORTH KOREA COULD MAKE 12,000 TONNES OF
[deliverable]CHEMICAL WEAPONS, for use agz SOuth espec in Preemptive/Surprise Milstrike.

Where goes the NOKORS goes ISLAMIST IRAN, + vicey versies, ergo ultimat also goes the MILTERRS.

D *** NG IT, CLEARLY POST-2012 IRAN + MILITANTS MUST HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS BECUZ THEY'LL A WAY TO DE-CONTAMINATE BOTH THEMSELVES + THE ENVIRONMENT IN CASE OF ANY LOCAL CHEM, BIO- BOMB "WORK ACCIDENTS".

And only Allah knows what kind of diseases dem TIME/SPACE-TRAVELING, SPACE UNIVERSITY
"SPACE/STAR BREAK" ALIEN COLLEGE KIDS + THIER "BEACH PLANET" NAKED PROFS BRING WITH THEM BACK TO OLD EARTH.
