#1 I suppose Colmar, Metz, or Bern would have been too boring.

#3 This is an opportunity for a thankless task, covertly wipe out the Burkina Faso islamists and destroy the economies of those who support them.

Some targeted strikes, accidents, encourage some infighting, infrastructure failures etc.

#5 Good idea! Let's start bombing another country! I'm sure that will turn out well, just like all the other times it worked out well. Whoops, by that I mean "cost us billions that we can't afford and created more enemies where none existed while enabling local corruption."

#7 OK, lay out the case for bombing yet another country that never did anything to us. Tell us the great benefits it will bring the American people, and support this with evidence from all the times we bombed other countries like Iraq, Syria, Libya, etc.

This should be fun. All we have to show for our constant bombings is our veterans with limbs blown off or PTSD and an empty treasury.

#8 Did I disagree with you, or did I point out the repetitive nature of most of your comments?

#9 Cut out a cancer!?! What did it ever do to us let's leave it in place. It never metastasises.

#11 I can't help but notice a string of ad hominem insults and a complete lack of any kind of refutation. This isn't how to argue. No wonder you get your asses kicked by the Left if this is all you can bring.

#12 Don't you just love low IQ types who have no problem with people being murdered, starved, raped etc etc etc and who have no answers?
