If nothing else palehorse, keep an open mind, after all, after seven years, the strategy you advocate is not working.
Forget it... you're dumber than a box of fucking rocks. You still don't understand that what I advocate hasn't even been tried... or perhaps you're simply choosing to ignore 99% of what I write.

Either way, once again, I'm done dealing with your bullshit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Whatever makes you happy, Then don't deal with my bullshit, long odds, your commanding officers are going to soon tell you, forget it palehorse, reality dictates, we stay out of Pakistan.

Is that the worst that can happen? Hell, they've been telling us that for seven years... then again, I happen to know many of my senior leaders; and they feel the same way I do.

So, we'll see. As it stands, in terms of taking out ALL of the safe havens, everyone is holding their breath while we wait for our next CIC to step in...

If these next commander and chief decisions don't go your way palehorse, many of the senior leaders you know are either going to change their positions, or they will be reassigned elsewhere. Or suffer the fate of Shinsiki. After all, they have no success delivering anything positive after seven years in Afghanistan. And have made many bone head decisions. In any private business, their asses would have been fired years ago.

Smart people have plan B's, because plan A does not always pan out.

My proposal, which is generally supported by my senior leadership, is plan B.

We haven't tried it... yet.

You can't negotiate with religious fanatics. They want to govern us with Islam just like Christian fundies want to ban abortion and teach intelligent design. Nothing short of death will stop them because they are 100% sure they are right. You can only stomp them out of existence. It's the only way.

Agreed.
