Aaaaand here we go again!
Polistra noted a couple months ago that the wave of revolts in the Arab world is objectively the end-game of Sheikh Osama's 20-year war. Osama has never intended to impose sharia on the West. He views himself as a knight or champion of the Arab people, using Islam as fuel to help the Arabs take back their world from Western domination. And now it's happening. Oddly we haven't heard from him; you'd think a word of encouragement would be appropriate.
America and Europe didn't take a side in Egypt and Tunisia. In Tunisia the rebels succeeded, and in Egypt the army took over for a while, pending the appointment of the next Mubarak type. One win and one loss for Osama, without any intervention; a reasonable result, and at least we didn't waste any money and men.
Now, for some unknown reason, the West has decided to aid the al-Qaeda rebels in Libya. As always we operate "under UN resolutions". As always we promise first to do just a little advising and assistance. As always we will bog down in a quagmire, with no goal in mind, with no definite sense of who's the enemy and why, with Gandhian Rules of Non-engagement requiring our soldiers to die without firing a shot, and with our traitorous milifairy bureaucracy rigorously prosecuting any non-fag soldier who dares to shoot the enemy. As always we will accomplish nothing except losing money and lives and irritating the pig.
Maybe that's why Sheikh Osama hasn't bothered to speak. He knows that we're going to continue our bizarre national suicide without any work on his part. Wily old coot. ¶ 4:14 AM
