If the US smashes the central government's ability to operate, it enables the citizen to overthrow it. It's an alternate plan to sending in troops to occupy them for 8 years and forcibly remove them.

so you are saying the US should have just done shock and awe in Iraq and then let the people overthrow their dictator and fix the crumbled infrastructure themselves?

Not really appropriate seeing as how USA isn't doing anything in Libya, as they also didn't do anything in Tunisia, or Egypt. Bombs fit with Khaddafi, but the flag doesn't...

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=Khaddafi "Showing results for Gaddafi."

I don't argue with the Google.

Actually, you do argue with Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muammar_Gaddafi#Name

makes perfect sense that america would try to take out the leader that has supported their oil companies over the years.....If america was in it for the oil they would be fighting the rebellion.

I own that tshirt. Think I got it from Cafe Press. Not a lot of people get it here in Ireland though...

It's funny. Regardless of whether it's true or not, I find it amusing.

Seen this used as an avatar on several sites.Odd that the bombs have the Russian star on them.

Here's a PSD, edited so the bombs, text, are removed from the flag, with a black background. I was going to add a different flag (one that would go good on a black background) but I figured I'd leave that up to someone with a better eye than me for these things.

I figured it would allow for a better desktop image...(because seriously, who uses a WHITE desktop image)

That makes for a very pleasing background. Stretching it to fit the screen does not fuck it up one bit. Kudos.

PS - My lack of shortcuts on the desktop may be confusing but disregard that. 3 years old PC...really.

PPS - I'm drinking in the morning disregard my editorial you probably don't give a shit.

PPPS - Diggin the hole deeper. Check out my Microsoft suite. Not touting the software but If you type Micro blah as the shortcut title (Micro word) there is no ....then a cutoff. The title is completely shown. Just saying. Maybe glance back at the pic to see what I mean because I'm rambling hard

Dude. I have no shortcuts and my taskbar is hidden. The screen is always clean and I have to search for my programs. Everyone thinks I'm weird.

Wow. Just wow. I could sacrifice my shortcuts. No taskbar? You must be a keyboard shortcut genie.

I said the same thing to myself in first person point-of-view after I ate that leftover bean burrito this morning.
