...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund.... I said that America had been sucked into a quagmire in Cambodia, in Afghanistan, and in Iraq, even though it has the largest military in the world. I said that no country that has ever crossed the border into the territory of another country has ever managed to avoid being sucked in a quagmire there. I said that nobody knows how many years this war would last. When two large armies clash — like the Egyptian and the
Turkey'd better think two or three times about that. We didn't put troops into Cambodia (except for John Kerry, of course). Cambodia and Laos were safe areas for the North Vietnamese. The Ho Chi Minh trail was outside South Vietnam. Iraq had Iran and Syria as safe areas. Afghanistan has Iran and, more importantly, Pakistain as safe areas. Libya has Tunisia, if the Moslem Brüderbund keeps power, as a kinda safe area for the Turks, Egypt and Algeria as safe areas for Libya. There was a story a few days ago that the Turks had signed an arms agreement with Niger on the southwestern border, but I don't think they'll get one with Chad or Sudan.
