Underlines the old observation: determined men with Kalashnikovs can cripple US commercial 'SotA' Archived Message Posted by Rhisiart Gwilym on September 30, 2019, 9:12 am, in reply to "Re: Pity they didn't catch any Brits, Yanks or Israelis..." hitech military junk every time. Bought, in this case, at huge and pointless expense by the useless flabby dolts of the al Saud famiglia. This should have been very obvious by now, from the way the Pashtuns - with little more than the Pashtunwali moral code and Kalashnikovs - have brought the equally-useless flabby dolts of the vaunted US military itself to a standstill, to the point of negotiating capitulation in Afghanistan: the latest in a long line of imperialists hastening their own demise in the graveyard of empires.

And then, what happens to the oil? USAmerica going to invade and take it over, are they? (No) good luck with that Michael Pompous-Hippo level of realpolitikal ineptitude!
