Hypothetical: If a country labeled the US military as terrorists...
Edited on Sun Oct-14-07 02:53 PM by killbotfactory
If another country, with a recent history of invading two other nations as part of a "war on terror", officially labeled the US military as a terrorist organization, would you expect diplomacy to follow?

Would you consider it a step towards peace?

1. How many diplomats can dance on the head of a 2000 lb laser-guided bomb?

4. Yep. Might makes right.
That's the lesson our time as superpower is reinforcing.

5. Is the answer that obvious?
Of course, when the Iraq War Resolution can be spun into an effort to "get diplomacy to work" people will buy anything, I guess.
