#6 Graveyard of Empires....but the other ones were at least aware when they left that it was a sucking sump of 9th century tribalism and a fetis swamp of Islamic lunacy. We on the other hand, will leave and continue to send these people money we borrow from the Chinese because we really are that stupid inside the beltway where our leaders exist in some kind of Twighlight Zone altered reality.

#9 As per FREEREPUBLIC, the CPUSA is suing the Democratic Party for ideo + agenda theft.
OOOOOOOO, you just know you'll need to bring extra extra Popcorn to the Ninth Court.
LOL.
As for AFGHANISTAN ...
* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > REOPENING NATO SUPPLY ROUTES: US READY TO OFFER MORE COMPENSATION, + to pay more Taxes, to Islamabad.
ARTIC > US OFFICIAL [IIUC = paraph] = COST(S) QUESTIONS are beside the point because the Supply Routes thru Pakistan remain the most effective + cheapest for the US-NATO, ESPEC AS PER US-NATO SUPPORT + MAINTENANCE OF AGHANISTAN'S SECURITY.
versus
* SAME > CHINA AND PAKISTAN TO STAND BY EACH OTHER.
Gilani reiterates that "CHINA'S ENEMY IS PAKISTAN'S ENEMY".
* IIRC SAME > INDIA-PAKISTAN NUCLEAR EXCHANGE STILL POSSIBLE IFF PAKISTAN CONTINUES TO SUPPORT MILITANTS, i.e. MilTerr activities agz India.
