Look, I've written about this in the past. I honestly believe that the genocide in Darfur will not end until we put a full division of US troops into the middle of the refugee area with orders to shoot any enemy troops on sight. So in one respect, I agree agree with Sen. Biden. Here's where I have to put on the brakes, however - I do not think that the troops would be allowed by the
And let's not even talk about the howls of indignation that will come from the rest of the world should we drop the 82nd Airborn into Darfur. If you think the moronic screeching is bad now, just wait until the first American shoots some African rapist in the middle of the act. We won't just have to kill the murderers and rapists currently infesting the Sudan, we'd be in an all out war with the Sudanese government and everyone who supports them. Oh, and let's not forget how China would act, since they have invested heavily in the oil fields there.
So if you're going to advocate sending ANY troops into Darfur, you're going to have to accept the fact that it will most likely end in one of two ways: A) we wipe out all enemy forces for a fifty-mile radius, thus allowing the refugees to go about life unmolested, or B) another Mogadishu-type pullout, with video of dead American soldiers being played worldwide. We cannot go into Darfur expecting the locals to act rationally. If they felt like acting rationally, we wouldn't need to go into Darfur in the first place! Should we put any troops in harms way in Africa, it should be with the full backing and support of every feckless parasite on Capitol Hill, orders to shoot to kill, the knowledge that we are starting a shitstorm that can only end when our enemy is too dead to fight anymore, and the resolve that it is the right thing to do no matter how many rapists, thieves, murderers, and other assorted scum-sucking cesspool dwellers die at our hands.
That means no whining and wailing about how many people we kill. If our troops see someone committing murder, they kill the perp. If our troops see someone raping a girl, they kill the rapist. If our troops see a large group of people with AK-47's marching into a refugee camp, they don't have to ask that group who they are, why they have weapons, and why there is a dead 12 year old girl with a bullet hole in her head; they simply sight in on the group and open fire. We're not trying to stop crime in Times Square, we're trying to prevent the wholesale slaughter of a group of people who are targeted because they belong to the "wrong" religion.
Anything less, and we just invite more tragedy. But for some strange reason, I cannot think of ANY of the current crop of communist clusterfucks in Congress who would go for those rules.
