A few dozen tanks secured the megalopolis of Bangkok in a few hours. Bangkok has just under half the population of all of Iraq.

I think its a good example of what should happen in USA to save it from the fascist take-over.
I used to live in Thailand, and Taxin Shinawatra was very popular when he first became Prime Minister. But then he began to make his family very rich using corrupt techniques, and the Thai people do not like corruption in Government. Thai means free, and they intend to stay that way.
How can the US citizens become free again?

Youre absolutely right, I agree with you.
Also, I think we should send the Vigilantes (Minutemen) to secure the borders in Iraq against the terrorists that are coming through Iran and Syria to kill innocent people and American troops. But then ofcourse they rather just stay here and play John Wayne killing children and innocent people that are just trying to make a better living for themselves.
Heres the perfect example to proove that they just dont "Protect and Report" bs.

Yeah that is funny. Good joke. So you are going to fight terrorists with other terrorists? Did you happen to think that they might happen to be allies with each other?
Just keep reading on the web and learn about history. It is good you are paying attention. Some people do not even know this is going on and are thinking about what club they are going to party in in Bangkok.

In Bangkok they let their tanks run over people and no one cares, you don't have half the country whining because the government made terrorists wear tighty whitey's and doggie pile each other.

Well we took control of Iraq in about 5 days, only because we had to cross the desert and we had to face a huge sand storm that slow down the process. The problem was that we had no plan for after we took control.

Let's face it. The Americans have only ever triumphed in one war on their own and that was the War of Independence. Since then their track record hasn't been too good. You might be right with your theory.

General Sherman (US Civil War) said war is hell and to be avoided if at all possible.
But he also said that war is not won by winning hearts and minds, but by so crushing the enemy and making them lose the will to fight that their grandchildren will remember the lesson.
I'd say he's right. Ask the Germans and the Japanese also.

hello,
to answer the psdeou question, no. It really reveals such a lack of real world understanding. Your suggestion is commical because it so unrealistic, the issue of iraq and security is and was a real issue, we have the greatest military in the world, but Rumsfeld also is imcompetent.
this quasi question however is dumb.

These guys were Thais. You're right we should have let the Iraqis take care of their own problems.
