Re: "plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose" Afghanistan
UP, we should always bear in mind that the WKTE (White Knights Of The Empire) bombed Afghanistan quite some time before 911.

Apparently not enough.
Because they stand on the wall and say "nothing's gonna hurt you tonight, not on my watch".

"Bomb the bastards into the stone age" was the chorus when they were bombing the descendants and possessors of Anqor Wat.
For the maniacs, no amount of bombing is enough bombings.

Indeed, but I think Anqor Wat is quite some way from Afghanistan.Undried Plum wrote: ↑Tue Jun 28, 2022 2:31 am"Bomb the bastards into the stone age" was the chorus when they were bombing the descendants and possessors of Anqor Wat.

Yes, but the same mentality prevails, sadly.
Even today there are the knuckle draggers who believe that bombings are the solution to their problems.

It is dangerous to store old bombs etc and they do need frequent rotation with new stocks.

The merchants of death don't just need rotation of stocks. They need whole new wars. Again and again and again.

A twenty year war in Afghanistan must have bought retirement mansions for several lucky people.
Then there is the 70 year war with North Korea which must be a tidy earner for a few.

The 'war' in Ukraine must have earned fair few high-fives in the military-industrial complex too.
Not much money to be made in Afghanistan nowadays, hence: no C-17s or A440Ms carrying aid to save the poor buggers who are struggling after the massive earthquake in Afghanistan.

There is still plenty to be made by pilfering the billions (yes billions) of Afghan banking reserves and what must be the most unjust part of this is handing Afghan money to 'victims' of 911!
