I have a new column up at Pajamas Media. I don’t know if we usually take in account in war plans that people are going to whine a lot, but we probably should.

I read about it at the puppy blender’s, I figured you had quit blogging.
Oh well, there’s always tomorrow.
Nevermind the sarcastic jokes at Frank’s expense. Yes, he deserves them, but upon reading With the Old Breed, I must say that this column is refreshing in honest American truths. Modern war is a hellish existence that no one should have to live through, but we can’t ignore it. Any person at home who does nothing but whine during an American war needs to find something better to do before we punch him in the kidneys.
“Bombing a country is nothing, but hanging around the country afterward, helping it rebuild and establish a system of government where the citizens don’t get bossed around by a homicidal dictator, gets us into trouble. And it is pretty difficult for the troops; it requires them to stand out there exposed among the populace instead of just running around in tanks and exploding stuff.” ~ Frank J.
So how about we don’t hang around? Just blow up the homicidal dictator’s planes, helicopters, tanks, APC’s and artillery, then drop enough rifles and ammunition for everyone in the country, and let democracy work?
There’s heat seeking missiles, is there any such thing as a whine seeking missile? It could solve a lot of problems.
I was disappointed that your plans for the next (who knows how many) middle east war(s) didn’t include whipping a cruise missile with a 100 megaton hydrogen warhead directly at the Kaaba, followed days later by giant robots who would wander through the rubble, taunting the mutant survivors by chanting, “Where is your god now? Bwahahahaha.” But then, I read your book. In fact, I even bought it, which makes me twice cursed. Keep up the good work!
Do not pull a Boehnor and “negotiate” away the robots! We have to have the robots with bright red glowering eyes that walk around and do two things. 1)Melt Muslims into little puddles on the sidewalk and 2) Hang liberals from the highest tree by the back of their underpants!
Wow Frank, one of those guys called you “Mr. Fleming” . Respect on another website. Can tell that guy isn’t a IMOA’er. Mr. Fleming…boy I bet that gave you a tinglie sensation. Oh and by the way not a bad piece, why can’t you do that here?
Why is the liberal left afraid that Christians will stop turning the other cheek and kick the Islamic world’s butt?
I think I answered my own question!
EdthePastor – because we don’t pay for Frank’s articles. Well, some of us don’t.
Besides, Frank needs to write and people need to read him.
Oh, it’s 2011 – time to send money so Frank won’t stop blogging… here!
War on terror is a trumped up excuse for big government to exist.
We need new personal bombs for the American people that we could each own and operate at our discretion! Like, my allocation is 10 5,000 lb bombs, 5 cruise missiles, 1 MOAB and 5 tactical Nukes. I can then use Google to put an X on a map and push a launch button on my computer screen and watch as the place where my X is located goes kerblewy! So when some Muslim over here shoots off his yap about something stupid, about 150 million MOABS are launched at various Arab countries. Our troops could just stand back, take a break and watch. We’d still pay them and all and they would have to secure my inventory and keep it in good working order but that’s it. It’s kind of like every American playing RISK for real! Sorry France, Mexico and Canada. Can’t do much to help you guy out as I would expect you to be obliterated within about 5 minutes of my new system!
personal bombs for the American people Awesome idea. Democracy in action! Power to the people!

I’m thinking you might want to add software keeping us from targeting locations within the US. Otherwise rebuilding the Nations Capital every time a new president or congress is sworn in is going to get expensive.
