I march against the Asagods
To bring the end of time.
I am pure and endless pain
And Surtr is my name.

See me rise, the mighty Surt,
Destroyer of the universe.
Bringer of flames and endless hurt
Scorcher of men and Earth.

Just look how fucking well this turned out....
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

I wonder if the other UN countries would fill in the gap if the US stopped with its interventionist policies?
I march against the Asagods

I am pure and endless pain
And Surtr is my name.

See me rise, the mighty Surt,
Destroyer of the universe.
Bringer of flames and endless hurt

France has a history of militarily intervening in it`s former colonies.

It did so in the last ten years in Ivory Coast, Congo and Mali.
And also had a big troop contingent stationed in Afghanistan.

Thing is, hardly anyone notices.

France (contary to sterotypical belief) has a very strong army, air force and navy and is not affraid to engage in military intervention.
And I am happy that at least one European country has the guts to engage in a more aggressive foreign policie when confronted with assholes.
The rest of Europe unfortunatly seems to prefer pussy politics and peace negotiations with monsers like Hamas.

Quote:France had previously only committed to providing training and logistical support to Mali's military.

Yeah - that's how it always starts. How many times have we fallen into that particular rathole.
