#7 When it was the War Department before it became the Department of the Army, how many wars did it win and how many after? When it was the War Department how many foreign adventures and commitments did it have? Would the old War Department standby when its southern borders were overrun?

#12 Charlie Brown doesn't take a dump without a plan, son.

Its just that it involves the kitchen sink, a garden hose, a roll of pennies, and a picture of your dad.

#14 Shut the fuck up, you don't tell a sovereign nation what to do.
When people are ordered to evacuate and don't, what happens is on them, not Israel.

#20 At this point, I think a Curtis LeMay firestorm plan would be the best starting option, followed by three days of rubble bouncing and then finally a second firestorm. Once completed, it will be sufficiently prepared for a combined arms entry.
