Not asking to be "fed" but curious about your "knowledge bank". I guess the chance of you dealing with that mess is next to zero?

See above.
Ditto.

Using your support for the unprovoked attack upon Libya,yes.
In other words, you were pulling things out of thin air to make an argument... nothing more than a partisan hackery.

Really?
The USA never officially invaded North Viet Nam...but it certainly killed a lot of North Vietnamese.
Oh, your love for anything "official". I guess it is official that we never dropped any leftover bombs over Cambodia either, so it never happened. Anyway, great explanation you have for explaining difference between the two wars... using your best bet... a deflection of course.

There has always been internal opposition to Gaddafi....
Surprise!

I doubt we will need to get used to anything,we are bankrupt and cannot afford the handful of wars we are currently fighting....soon enough the cash will be cut off.
Yeah, it was great supporting trillion plus dollar wars, while the world ends on $1 billion.

You seem to have missed the point,you do not need to invade a nation to be at war with it...

Quote:
Surprise!
And yet no need for the USA to attack Libya...

SO you support cheaper unprovoked attacks upon other nations...gotcha.

Oh wow, google! Why didn't I think of that? Not that I wasn't exactly looking for your version and the author. I guess you googled it up before making your argument?

I will make it better... I love such opposition because it gives me ample reason to firm up my beliefs as to why I get into arguments with y'all.

Iraq war was an invasion. I wouldn't use "invasion" as the operative word for assisting (what would be) Al Qaeda against the Soviets. you?

Quote:

And it didn't. Again, I don't think America was invading Afghanistan when it was helping the Afghan freedom fighters. Did you?

Well, sounds like some people are just more sensitive now than they were in the past.

No,I read it.when discussing an issue it is always best to have some knowledge of the subject.

The USA did not use any military assets against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
By the way,Al Qaeda wasn't formed until around August 1988,the war ended February 1989.

The USA attacked Libya with it's military forces,not so during the Soviet war in Afghanistan.

Supported terrorism though.


I guess you never actually have read the Iraq resolution?



Surely not that over 20 years ago a terrorist attack occurred against a US airliner?
Because Gaddafi handed over the two supposedly responsible.
LMAO...so you DID support the war in Iraq!! 'Bout time you came clean. Seen those WMD lately?

"We've already wasted $1 Billion with a "B" in Libya"

Funny how suddenly spending what amounts to a rounding error in the national budget to rid the world of a dictator is waste, while spending $748.2 and counting (not including the human costs) was the great end all be all of spreading democracy across the middle east.

Funny how things seem to play out these days.
