Afghanistan: 180 degree alternate plan! Read this!

My big empty head ^

[Hammerhead]

Freeps, while sitting bedside with my 5 year old waiting for her to finish puzzles I got the 'brilliant' idea of how to possibly handle the Afghan situation - an idea to far out in left field, that there is NO WAY the Taliban bottom feeders could figure out how to handle it!!! Check this out: 1st we actively side with the rebels in the north and have them start a campaign to join their side. "Oh, no kidding Hammerhead you big goof. Like that hasn't already be thought of!!!", you say. But here's the BEUTIFUL part. All the while the rebels are recruiting, start BOMBING the citizens (women, children, men) of Afghanistan and northern Pakistan, with........here goes..... blankets, comic books, toys, food, reading glasses, toiletries, all the basic good things in life. That would throw the Taliban in FITS!!!!!! just friggin keep bombing the country with the stuff!!! The general population would say hey T-men, F-off were going the Gringo's and the boys up north that are trying to get rid of your sorry asses!!! Am I a kook or what?

[Hammerhead]

Hey Hammer, sounds good to me! Someone forward this up the chain of command!!

[austingirl]

Absolutely brilliant General Hammerhead!

While your at it why don't we send them a nice Halmark card.

[isthisnickcool]

Ha ha! Air drop electrical generators, TV's, VCR's and videos of Sponge Bob Squarepants.

Sounds good. Make sure to include nylons and Hershey's chocolate bars in those C.A.R.E. packages, and send over Richard Gere to keep their women happy.

Hammer, put the puzzles away and go to bed..LOL

[Doohickey]

Soap. LOTS of soap.

[Objective Reality]

LOL! My "nuclear annihilation" tirade sounds so cruel now. Nuclear annihilation for the Taliban and terrorist camps, a full array of Western goodies for the civilians. What the HELL would the liberals say THEN?!

[Joan_of_Argghh!]

Am I a kook or what?

What. :)

How about a Wal-Mart Super store - and *no* check-out lanes!

[Hammerhead]

I don't know man, the whole Idea just came to me. The thought of us dropping essentials, and toys for the kids, it's like that Kris Kringle thing happening. YOu know the sheriff that outlaws toys?!?! Those f'n Taliban guys would be going absolutely BONKERS try to keep the population under control!!!!! They are so distracted with the population all over the country, there's noway they can fully concentrate on us taking them out!!!!

[Jubal Harshaw]

This is a great idea. And basically the same as the Marshall plan that brought peace (so far) to Western Europe after WWII. I bet that this will be done, when the time is right.

[MHGinTN]

Where ya been? I been sayin' for days that our first bombing run over Afghanistan should drop canned food and powdered milk, with US of A all over it! Let them fill their bellies, then sit quietly and think about that maybe being their last meal if they follow the Taliban into martyrdom!

[mrustow]

I know just how you feel. Musing to myself while horsing around with my little boy gives me all kinds of goofy ideas, too. (And I even manage to keep some to myself!)

[Dutch Boy]

Either that or start pumping MTV into every air wave and tv set in the country. Within 12 months every teen bomber in the country will turn into a lazy slug and end of revolution.

[Bald Eagle]

hey thanks..I always wondered how to kill them with kindness.

[bazbo]

Your hair brained scheme made me smile.....thanx, I needed that and maybe it's not as hairbrained as it first seemes... May God continue to bless....
