Re: US uses Napalm in Fallujah
How I see it...
Terrorism is like a gigantic chinese finger trap. The harder we pull, the the more they hold us. Pre-emptive attacks may work on a central government, but there is no way to hold a pre-emptive attack on indivisuals. Poor decisions and planning (Iraq), hypochracy (Iraq), and sheer cockyness (Iraq) just makes their grip harder to penetrate because their ideas of us are proven right in their eyes. Indivisuals will just keep on coming. I realize this is inevitable no matter what we do, but things like that just make it worse. There is only one way to get out of a finger trap when all your fingers are stuck. Someone else's help. It doesn't make those countries better than us or stronger than us, if anything it treats them as our equal as we should. Unfortunatly our poor decisions, hypochracy, and cockyness has had the same effect on our possible allies that it has on our obvious enemies. Obviously, that's not good. If we had taken the best actions, the grip would be loosened. We would be safer because then a majority of the world would be against the terrorists rather than ourselves.
I get it. It's crystal clear.
Re: US uses Napalm in Fallujah
That has to be a good way of looking at it...
However, i wonder how many Republicans know what a chinese finger trap is?

If you pulled that recipe out of the Anarchist Cookbook, or got the recipe from someone who pulled it out of the Anarchists cookbook, I wouldnt trust it. ;)
