I'm not the one who suggested getting involved down there; I can put my mortal life where my mouth is by sitting right in this chair and going nowhere near the place.
When all the religious leaders started showing up in Washington talking about the terrible things going on down in Darfur, and how we must do something about it, I'm the guy who would have liked to "invite" them aboard a C-5B and dumped their ever-so-righteous asses on the tarmac at the Al Junaynah airport so they themselves could solve the problem rather than put more of our troops in harm's way. Their idea; their responsibility to implement it.
You think there's anything simple about this conflict, have a peak at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darfur_conflict
The names of the political groups involved in it are reminiscent of the script for "Monty Python's Life of Brian"
I do like the name "Janjaweed", ("Devils on Horseback" although apparently a lot ride on camels) who sound suspiciously like some sort of militant Jamaican revolutionaries who charge into battle hammering on steel oil barrel drums with pictures of Haile Selassie painted on them.

So once again pat you are showing disrespect for yourself by acting
just like rand has here on this thread, as he has chosen to abdicate
his responsibility to his words of ignorance, do you so want to
dishonor your self by continuing to act like you have in the above
post.

I'm a big naughty, that's what I am.
I'm keen what the next guilt trip on your part will be; you've done The Trail Of Tears; you've done Darfur; try to move into new and untouched territory for what evils the white man has done in the world...let's see...what's left that hasn't been written to death already...I've got it! The Great Leap Forward! 20 to 43 million dead, and it was OUR fault.
Why? Because we could have fed all those starving millions of Chinese with our agricultural surpluses!
But did we? No. And you know why? Because China was a communist nation, and wouldn't take our Imperialist Running Dog grain surplus even if we had offered it to them.
But we could have solved that.
How?
By becoming commies ourselves for a few years, of course.
Just until the famine was over and they figured out that dumping priceless Ming bronzes, rusting armor plate off of colonial-era gunboats and old P-40 propellers into a backyard barbecue fired by yak dung wasn't going to result in high carbon tool steel, no matter how much soy sauce you added to the alloy.
Then we could have started setting up these low-priced stores throughout China where the starving masses could buy fine plastic dinnerware to replace those lumps of rusting slag in the backyard that used to be Grandpa Wing-Dings' wedding gift to the family, pots and pans that had been passed down through countless generations since the time of Genghis Khan.
Once they got the hang of sporks, chopsticks would be a thing of the past, our world's forests would be less endangered,
and Global Warming would be reduced.
Soon, Chinese workers would come to count on those shops full of cheap American goods as a way of making their Yuans go further, and we'd have control over their economy, particularly after we started financing their national debt by buying up government bonds from them.
They would be under our thumbs, and we could convert them to capitalism in no time flat, while at the same time vastly increasing our industrial base and farm production.
As has been said by the philosopher Li-Din-Bain : "It is obvious to the discriminating intellect that once their testicles are firmly in your grasp, their hearts and minds shall surely quickly follow."
But of course we didn't do that, did we?
So all those people starved.
You know why?
Because we are Americans...born assholes. :-D
