6. Well that's the Crux of the Biscuit isn't it?
I mean, they can't adequately arm and support the troops that are already there! Just more bullshit from an Administration that's already up to their necks in the stuff as it is. We'll send them in with spitwads and zip guns! And then there's the Elite SuperSoaker Squad! Nonsense!

10. Some of them seem to think they may be capable of that, given
that Gawd talks to them, etc.

11. I am so fuckin' sick and tired of semantics...
..."the 21,500 additional troops to escalate the occupation are "combat" related troops."

the remaining 26,500 will be in "support" of the 21,500 combat troops...

:mad:
