"Here's some guns. You promise to kill the right people now, right?"

This is simply something I copied directly off of Excite.com's front page this morning. It's an excellent example of U.S. diplomacy, exercised the way we do it best.

" U.S. Arming Sunnis in Iraq to Battle Old Qaeda Allies
Commanders are arming groups that have promised to fight militants who have been their allies in the past."

I think so long as guns are seen as a solution, you guarantee yourself endless problems.

I hope the Commanders checked to see if they had their fingers crossed.

psychomikeo: Geezuz, I'll bet you're right. I'll wager they forgot to check if those hands under the table, those hands behind their backs, were hands in crossed-fingered configurations.

And because of that I'm pretty sure those guns are going to come back to hunt us. (Whoops, I think I omitted the "a" in "hunt" didn't I?)

eprof2: Those very words X-ed my mind as I was preparing this particular blog.

geez az, this ron paul must really be something. I went over to check him out once, but couldn't stay long. (I have a very low politician-pain threshold.)

Perhaps I'll try again when I'm feeling really strong.
