Them's fightin' words

I'm not sure why we put up with those fucking douchebags in Iran. They continue to spit in our face and we do virtually nothing. Here's their latest passive-aggressive threats towards the U.S. The last time I checked, we were 11-1 in major conflicts. Do they really want to go 13 rounds with the greatest military power in the history of the planet?

Don't forget about North Korea. You can lump them into the "Simon Hawk Global Cleansing Plan". Speaking of massive destruction, can anyone remember what those gigantic conventional bombs are called? Simon and I were talking about how nukes are too messy with the fallout, etc. But we thought there were conventionals that could level entire city blocks.

The theocrats running Iran aren’t afraid of our military. They’re afraid of our economy. Crazy threats help them. The last thing they want is normal relations. That would lead to a free exchange of good and ideas and internal pressure from their people to modernize Iran. Plus we won’t invade. We don’t want to invade. Look at how much hassle Iraq is. Invasion leads to occupation and we’re really not so great at that. We can do it but our military is much better at destroying things that building stable democracy in places full of crazy people. Sure we can level the place in a couple of weeks but than what? Killing everyone isn’t really an option. The religious nutters over there would love to spend 50 years hiding in caves and fighting the great Satan.

Our markets though, that’s where it’s at. Look at the map over the last 50 years. The only countries to stay totally fucked up are the ones that keep out our markets and deal only with our military. China, the USSR, East Germany all decided that our way is worth trying, just a little. 5 Minutes later we’re pissed that their low labor costs are sucking up our jobs and their entire population wants to buy big screens and cars. Cuba, Iran and North Korea have built a wall to keep the godless, heartless capitalist pigs out and look what it’s gotten them: Dictators and misery. As soon as castro dies Donald Trump will build a resort/casino in Havana for old people and kids on spring break and that problem will solve itself.

The bombs you're talking about are Daisy Cutters. And India and China are on good terms with Iran. Iran has energy for sale and China/India need fuel badly.

Arming a proxy doesn't seem to work well in the long term. Sooner or later we have to clean it up anyway. Markets. That's where it's at.

The bomb they're REALLY talking about is the MOAB. Daisy Cutters are that monster's little cousins. Keep up on your weapons. I'm disappointed Garble!

You misunderstand. I LIKE the name MOAB. Bab sounds too nice. Moab has a good ring to it. The small country of Suckistan was taken out by a hoard of Moabs. Say it outload. You'll like it.
