Today, the free world convoy crossed the barren desert of Iraqi soil for what may seem like the last time - but the truth is, it was neither the first nor the last for a country that has been engaged in a long running Proxy War with China and the Former Soviet Union for over 70 years. While it is a great and momentous occasion that we have finally withdrawn our troops from the frontlines after the third part of a 30-year conflict in Iraq - the Iran-Iraq War was the first sign of US involvement. Desert Shield/Desert Storm was the second. Iraqi Freedom is the third. We have seen this fish before. In order to understand what I'm detailing in this topic, first familiarize yourselves with the following definition and subsequent informational article courtesy of the number one corporate-begging/billionaire-panhandling and number five informational service, Wikipedia (and don't give them any of your hard-earned cash while you're there). Here's an excerpt: "A proxy war or proxy warfare is a war that results when opposing powers use third parties as substitutes for fighting each other directly. While powers have sometimes used governments as proxies, violent non-state actors, mercenaries, or other third parties are more often employed. It is hoped that these groups can strike an opponent without leading to full-scale war." And another: "Proxy wars were common in the Cold War, because the two nuclear-armed superpowers (the Soviet Union and the United States) did not wish to fight each other directly, since that would have run the risk of escalation to a nuclear war (see mutual assured destruction). Proxies were used in conflicts such as Afghanistan, Angola, Korea, Vietnam, the Middle East, and Latin America." Proxy War courtesy of Wikipedia. Here's the plot: The Soviet Union and China have been funding, training and supplying arms to Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Egypt, Libya, Somalia, Cuba, Nigeria, Colombia, Venezuela, Palestine, Ireland, Greece, Brazil, Peru, Congo (or whatever it's called this week), the former Yugoslavia (Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo), Liberia, Lebanon, Romania, Rwanda, Slovakia, Slovenia, Vietnam, Thailand, Ukraine, Yemen, and Tunisia for at least 30 years each. While it is true that we may have disciplined one of Soviet Russia and Communist China's errant children, there are hundreds more thanks to the deadbeat bastard policy of unprotected slave labor, child labor, prison labor, prostitution, arms deals, drug deals, and the AIDS-equivalent of spying and information deals. They have made African-balloon-animals out of the condom-like peace and negotiation offers touted by US diplomats and floated them across the water. Who would want to practice abstinence from the dripping combat orgy when imminent mortality is raining down on them like a volley of cyanide-drenched arrows, penetrating to their hilts? You cannot fix bad parenting by dealing with the children themselves - We, the United States of America, must evolve beyond the teenage lifespan of our country and become adult parents to our children in Israel, Mexico, Canada, Australia, and around the world. We must confront the deadbeats and those who practice neglect and abandonment: Korea, China and Russia. They must be held accountable and responsible for the actions of their sons, the drug dealers and pimps, and their daughters, the warlords and state-sponsored terrorist prostitutes. Korea: You know when it's past your bedtime, that's why the lights go out at 8:30. But why do you let your son Libya stay up late playing with plutonium? He needs to turn that noise off. Russia: Many of your sons like Georgia are becoming wise to the error of your ways. You beat him so badly that he has permanent scars across his face. You are the reason that people confuse discipline and abuse. China: Your daughter, Thailand, grows and sells Cocaine and Opium to all of her neighbors. When will you discipline her and order her to get a real job instead of selling drugs and child sex slaves? Then again, what can we expect from fatherless children - Russia, the heir of the murdered Soviet Union. Korea and China, the last of Communism's adopted infants. We've shown that they are unfit parents - and we must now prepare to take custody of these bad children ourselves if necessary. For the sake of future generations everywhere - this is a call to social services.
Sectarian violence raises its ugly head again... Civil war fears rise as 72 killed in Iraq bombings Thursday 5th January, 2012 - At least 72 people died in coordinated bomb attacks on Shiite pilgrims and neighbourhoods in Iraq yesterday on the bloodiest day since US forces withdrew from the country.
We knew before Bush pulled his Shiite that it would be an impossible mess that we'd watch collapse into bedlam whenever we left. But he knew he'd be chillin' in Crawford for the inevitable horrors he created should anybody have the balls to end the Bush folly.
Your "plot" is boring and predictable. Every nation on earth since the Greeks and Romans have done the same thing. The US is up to its eyeballs doing the same thing. If this is breaking news to you, you know nothing about politics or history.
We weren't supposed to be there in the first place. It was based on lies...remember? Whoops! Shouldn't have been there in the first place, and now you righties whine cause we're leavin'. War mongering hypocrites..
It was breaking news when the article was written. After all, if it is breaking news that Obama is 'pulling our troops out of Iraq', then it is breaking news to the average reader that the troop removal is an illusion. Remember - My goal is not to reach high-level political scientists with a mainstream article, it is to reach the average individual that reads CNN, Fox, Huff Post, or any of the mainstream news/pol sites (this article is automatically better than 90% of those pieces - don't believe me? - look for yourself). Also, the fact that you skimmed it a week later and used it to troll is kinda sad. Have a great day, troll.
This is one of the best articles on here and one of the best articles written in the past 2 months. The fact that you are too slow to realize that it's a response article to the CNN "Breaking News: Troop Removal from Iraq" is a sign that you are a typical internet troll. Here's hoping you burn in hell, have a heart attack and die or gain some sense for one of the greatest writers ever and subsequently my website which is one of the best websites out. P.S. have a horrible and (*)(*)(*)(*)ty day, internet troll.
