How to embolden the enemy

[Mythsaje]

Simply put; attack them.

But what's more, tell them to "bring it on."

Begin making preparations for permanent bases, negotiate with the government you helped create for American corporations to reap immense profits off THEIR oil, and leave the common Iraqi with as little as possible.

Turn off their water, their power, and turn them from an industrialized nation into a nation of refugees.

Kill their women and children. Fill their streets with armed men and women, insult their religion, drag their countrymen to undisclosed locations and torture them.

Work to destroy your own credibility throughout the world, lie to everyone you speak to, put an incompetent ass in charge of the occupation and reconstruction, do nothing to preserve the stability of the soldiers thrown into the conflict, train them to "do whatever it takes" and muster expressions of false surprise when they're caught doing terrible things.

Dehumanize the enemy, try to teach soldiers to become killing machines, mock international law, and treat your own people like shit.

Embolden them? Who are they trying to fool with that crap? How could we who oppose this war possible embolden them? It seems as though they've been pretty goddamn bold all along.
