:har:. They must have run out of ammo and need to bring in some re-inforcements.

They said he was prepared to engage in “sincere and honest” talks.


Best joke I've heard in a good while....more like his followers are getting a bit tired of having their pants pulled down and have begun bellyaching :nope:

Aaah, the DPRK style of negotiations I presume, stall, reach an agreement and break it within a month.

Looks like 'negotiations' with Al Qaeda a little over the weekend.

Iraq's two most wanted Al Qaeda terrorists were killed in a joint operation with the U.S., Fox News confirmed Monday.

They are just re-arming. It's par for the course for these guys. I say keep bombing.

"It is tradition that we discuss a truce unarmed - so here - hold this knife in you chest cavity for me, will you?"

If you read the article - they claim they want to "not be involved" in politics - but they want sharia law reinstated country wide. Given how law is a function of politics - this is like someone saying they want to run the sheriffs office, they simply don't see a need to be elected.....

The sooner we unass that theater the better. :yep:

It is a military term with a long tradition. :)
