Me thinks Kuwait is our friend because of our 'gung-ho bullshit'.
I would venture to say roll the clock back about 50 years and you would find Americas "gung-ho bullshit" was much loved by Europe, and most of the world, also.
Ya, bitch out America when they are doing their thing elsewhere but when they are ridding your land of hostile forces..... that's different.
(not you personally Fish, it's a general statement.)
I can think of one war in Americas history where the 'gung-ho' Americans were kept on a rein and what happened? We failed at protecting and defending those we came to protect and defend.
'Tis my contention in war, if you are not gung-ho, you're dead.
I say; "Quick, send RedFish into the war so he can 'go first' and see who shoots at him."
We'll call it "Operation RedFish Shield"
Problem with that though is I think we'll run out of RedFish pretty damned quick.

I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.
