U.S. TROOPS DEPLOYED ALL OVER THE MAP WITH NO CLEAR, SPECIFIC MISSION & NO EXIT STRATEGY
Hands Tied, Nuclear Weapons Ruled Out; Oddly, Republicans Are In Charge
Washington, D.C. - (GNS)
- U.S. Troops have been deployed all around the globe to fight terrorists, fight drug traffickers, assist in peace-keeping, training military troops and police, and nation-building and for most there is no clear mission and no exit strategy, according to a fictional report never released by a major American newspaper.
     "What does the war on terrorism mean? What are we doing training soldiers in Georgia? How can we be nation-building in Afghanistan and Pakistan when we said we'd never do that again? Why are we targeting Iraq when Saudi Arabia and other Arab nations appear to have more to do with terrorism? How do you define a victory in the drug war? When will you know when the war on terrorism is won?"-- all these were among the questions raised in the report.
     The report further noted the Republican prosecutors of these wars and secret military actions have apparently tied the hands of the military, ruling out the use of nuclear weapons.
     "Why conduct Operation Anaconda with ground troops instead of a nuclear blast?" the report asked. "Isn't this the very kind of limitation Republicans and other hawks quarreled against in Vietnam; isn't this the reason they argue we lost that war?"
     "How long will we have troops in the Balkans, Georgia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Colombia?" the report asked. "What is the exit strategy?"
     Bush Press Secretary Airy Fleishchcherrrr dismissed the report, declaring "Our actions speak for themselves. Besides, the report doesn't even exist."
