Northern Iraq falls to Al Qaeda, $400 million looted from central bank.

What's super fucked up is that I still seek the supreme amount of adrenaline that came with treating severely hurt trauma patients. There is so much on the line, it is exciting.

It still feels wrong knowing that I enjoy that rush so much. I miss it in some ways.

Then I am reminded with nightmares, hyper vigilance and generalized anxiety. What a bitch! :)
it became making hamburgers to me...........very bad. I looked at severed legs, and thought, "hey........nice shoes."
I got out. haven't seen a human death since '08, and I like it, like it, yes I do.............

I seem to recall a moment of clarity when I was wearing galoshes because it kept my boots clean. I had been through one pair already that deployment. I realized then that something was wrong.

I haven't treated anything more then a choking kid and a few lacerations since I got out last year.

Now I remodel my house, read books, grow pot, and pet my animals. Much less stressful.

Saddam the virtual secularist gets rubbed out by the US, now theyre crying because the Sunnis are kicking off again.

People say Saddam was cruel, turns out he just used to be the guy with the big stick...

Guess what America?

There was no Al Queda in Iraq before you idiots invaded.
absolutely. the US cares for the safety and well-being of Iraqis slightly more than it cares about its own citizens, which is nil. they were giving Saddam hand-jobs and bags of money when it suited their nefarious schemes. too bad Rwanda didn't have oil...........the US would have napalmed the Hutu, or Tutsi, or Little Sisters of Mercy, or whoever was "terrorizing" the poor, oppressed people of the oil region.

Obama hasn't the political leverage to ever go back to Iraq.

Think about it, these militants were nothing before the Iraq/Afghan wars, now theyre rock stars attacking and looting CENTRAL BANKS and controlling whole regions of sand land.

Is it just me or has the war of terror actually propped up Al Queda and helped them hone their skills?

they are our boys. we don't totally control them, but we buy them off occasionally through the Saudi Wahhabi.

the "War" on anything doesn't work. more poverty, more drugs, more terror. force begets force.

we taught the Vietnamese how to tunnel, the Filipinos how to launch guerrilla attacks, Cuba how to be sustainable.
we are the great school-master. it makes me want to puke. eight years of "peace," under Ronald Rayguns, cost the US 18K dead. no one cares.

There was no Montana back then but
those guys were were kick ass,
The things they debated are much like the things we still debate in politics 238 years later.
It was like a crash course for them and they did a great job.

Just imagining Washington, Franklin, Jefferson etc posting on Facebook or some shit.

from their bunkers in Montana, or safe-houses in Boston............
EXACTLY!!

Our founding fathers would be droned or disappeared in short order if they were around today. They would be considered extremists, terrorists, subversives, and anti government by every media mouthpiece, and all the liberals would want them shot.
