Can't wait to see this stunningly incompetent notion implemented by the staggeringly incompetent Christians In Action. Sheesh.

"We will help the Iraqi people establish a peaceful and democratic country in the heart of the Middle East."

-- President George W. Bush, on his visit to England, 11/19/2003

"In war time the US has always resorted to unsavory measures to increase the chances of victory, is this the same thing?"

How would anyone know if it's the same thing, if you don't tell us what all the "unsavory measures" we've "always resorted to" are?

[hershey]

Exactly. Whatever it takes.

The CIA isn't qualified to get laid in Thailand with a fist full of 100's and a local underworld tour guide. Better send in some eight year old Boy Scouts.

You have a remarkably naive opinion of what reality is.

This aint your father's CIA. They did alright in Afghanistan. The CIA has been unleashed as of Sept. 12th, 2001.

So we're going to fund the forming of a shi'ite infested secret police agency. Islamic devils make such wonderful friends of the State Department. Grand. Swell.

The Phoenix program in Vietnamn was extremely effective. It decimated the VC in the South. I'm all in favor of son of Phoenix in Iraq.

Unfortunately, the Iraqi thugs ran away before we could kill them all during the war. We'll just have to hunt the diehards down one by one.

Ugh.

"Better send in some eight year old Boy Scouts."

No better send in the Israeli's to set up ANY intelligence unit. Sadly we are better at making spy satellites than spies.

[Lazamataz]

This is a terrible idea.

[Lazamataz]

I agree with you about almost nothing, these days.

Except this.

We cannot possibly maintain our moral high ground by doing thusly.

[Lazamataz]

No better send in the Israeli's to set up ANY intelligence unit.

Agreed. Anything that allows us to wash our hands of this messy, horrible idea.

Resentment towards America will treble with this sort of sanctioned Secret Police.
