the Arab Spring
#12
RE: the Arab Spring
Our wars aren't about tribalism but trying desperately to cling to the last vestiges of power and influence.

And I repeat, you get tribalistic arseholes everywhere but it does not permeate the culture like it does in the Arab countries.

Our culture for better or worse is more inclusive and less divisive.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
