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

Yeah sure, okay. I believe them.

What's the scuttlebutt on this one?

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

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.

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

Hrm... hopefully Obama has his B.S. filters stacked nice and thick.

Probably correct

"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.....

Hey, if it will give us an excuse to get the hell out of AF, I am for any talks.

The sooner we unass that theater the better.

SteamWake · 04-20-10, 05:49 PM

Is unass even a word?
