girl brained on camera for religious edification?

Ok, so in fact she was brained because her community had some racist insane morons who would be better off in lockdown. This story made me crazy. Reading it was bad enough, but the video is totally unbearable. I'd recommend you NOT watch it. The article explains it pretty well. Yazidi girl falls for Sunni boy... Sunni boy falls for Yazidi girl... mindless Yazidi mob brains girl with chunk of cement. Read the article before continuing on...

Its the beginning of the ethnic tensions we've all been anticipating for so long in Iraq. Joy joy. Each one of these episodes (and they'll grow more frequent) will illustrate the various torments W can expect when he finally passes beyond the veil. Anyway, the question I pose to all of you is... While we all seem to agree that GOING to Iraq was the worst decision made by a president.. Is STAYING in Iraq the wrong thing to do? We've made one hell of a mess there. Yes, I agree that W made the mess, but who's gonna clean it up? America elected a fool, don't we need to clean up the fool's mess? If someone besides W was in office and we were there, would we be so eager to leave, with a whole world of shit about to explode on a population that America dicked over?

uh...

I just did a googleearth flyover of the northwest. Unfortunately, all the trees are gone. It's all over.

Hey grin, I did a flyover of your mom's northwest last night...planted some trees.

HAHA! ZING!

Now, you say a bunch of confusing-ass shit....

I didn't mean to be confusing. I meant that literally. 70-80% has been logged. It's a mangled, hideous patchwork. And you're right, it is (was)my mom's NW, but I know you didn't plant any trees, as I have.

Really, I'm not trying to be provocative here. Try a googleearth flyover yourself. Start in some smallish logging town like Forks, WA, Bonners Ferry, ID or maybe even Eugene, OR (not a smallish logging town I know but useful) and just head straight into the mountains from there.
The devastation is a huge visceral hit in the face. Then read Jared Diamond's COLLAPSE.

Sorry, for the confusion there, Grin. By "planted trees", I meant that I had sexual relations with your mother. Oops! Boing!

How 'bout that! But not a terribly apt metaphor.

But, really, Alec, I'm curious: why the anger and sarcasm? I mean, I think others here might agree that I've only imparted at the worst neutral, and perhaps better, useful, information?

Here's my impression of you, Grin:
