Iraq just unliberated a bit of itself

[The Comrade]

i'd much rather be forced to deal with iran properly than continue to deal with the saudis out of necessity.

I'm at a loss as to how we deal with this. These extremists are brainwashed religious zealots who won't listen to reason and seem to have lost all humanity. How do you begin to tackle this?

[Philly]

Stay away from them and kill them if they come near you.

the mongols did a good job of getting the middle east to chill the f**k out.

a similar strategy could work.

[Professor]

Step 1 - We need drones. LOTS of drones. With nice cameras.

Step 2 - We need popcorn. LOTS of popcorn. With bacon pieces.

Step 3 - We need couches. LOTS of couches. With leather.

Step 4 - We need TVs. LOTS of TVs. With 60+" screens.

Step 5 - We sit and watch them fight amongst themselves for the next 20 years. Vegas runs odds on it. We watch as if it's a modern-day broadcast of Running Man or Hunger Games.

[The Comrade]

the only thing that doesnt work with the "let them fight each other" strategy is that they've made it clear they want to export that fight to europe, to north africa, to india, to america.

I think what we need to do is hang our head in shame for a bit and then ruin the careers of those responsible.
