| #5 One of the first things Al Qaeda masquerading as "rebels" did, drum roll, was set up a Central Bank. Why on earth would they do that? Well it soon became obvious. The US froze The Ducks assets in the US and transferred those assets, including Treasuries to the "Rebels" Central Bank.

There is something to be said for the Soviets' standardized, geared-to-the-lowest-level-of-civilization military organization, equipment and training. |
