EEOD? Why not, I could use a break from work

:911:
What irks me the most about all this is the media teaching everyone it's called ISIS. That's from Archer. A girl in the post coffee shop looked at me stupidly when I was talking to my friend and goes "Uhhh, you mean ISIS?" They call themselves and they're known as ISIL, I just hate that the media decided the public wouldn't know Syria is the Levant and figured it'd be easier to make up a new name for them that's easier to digest than just to tell the public one easy fact.

It's going to make it confusing for everyone when ISIL announces that Syria and Northwest Iraq is now "The Islamic State of the Levant" and everyone is scratching their heads at what happened to Syria.

I thought the al-Sham was when you came home and have it real good to your ungrateful fat red headed wife after a hard day selling shoes at the mall, while your teenage daughter gets bred by miles of BBC and your son is clearly a power bottom in the league of extraordinarily gay gentlemen.

Huh. Learning every day.

Isis the dog's name in Downton Abbey, which is what the freedom fighters based their name on. This is because the British were the cause of much of the current issues with how they drew up the borders in the middle east.

He (and his two brothers because everyone needs a couple chumps to do their leg work) also turned a frost giant's skull into the sky, used the brains inside that skull to make clouds, and turned the rest of the dude into the Earth. Which is way more awesome than anything Jesus's dad came up with.

And the way he punishes Loki:

"Loki being captured, they took him to a certain cavern, and they took three rocks, through each of which they bored a hole. Then they took Loki's sons Vali and Nari, and having changed Vali into a wolf, he tore his brother Nari into pieces. Then the gods took his intestines and bound Loki with them to the three stones, and they changed the cord into bands of iron. Skadi then took a serpent and suspended it over Loki's head so that the venom drops from it on to his face. Siguna, Loki's wife, stands near him, and holds a dish receiving the venom as it falls, and when the dish is full she goes out and pours its contents away. While she is doing this, however, the venom falls on Loki, and causes him such intense pain that he writhes so that the earth is shaken as if by an earthquake."

Plus the Ragnarok is about the coolest armageddon prophecy ever.

Ceterum autem censeo mundum esse delendam



Memento, homo, quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris
The highlight for all of this is the embarrassing amount of people who are blubbering about :qq: THIS ISN'T WHAT WHY WE WERE OVER THERE.

Of course not. The same people pissing and moaning about fraud, waste, and abuse from everything bolted or not bolted down in that country when we were burning gobs of money should have been their biggest tip off. It's especially hilarious to hear from people not directly attributed as any position on a chain of command, because every single one of those inbred non-commanding fucks were the first to (correctly) bitch about pointless missions and highly unnecessary risks. Bitching about pointless area beautification on a JSS that will be transitioned over in two days and then complaining about Iraq getting demolished is rich. At least commanders had the excuse of OER/career progression while deployed to give a semblance of care about Iraq's stability post-invasion. "This OPORDER might dictate that our overexerted platoons push out full 24-hour presence patrols so the prim assholes in the nearby airbase can watch Toby Keith suck a bald eagle's dick for an hour and not worry about IDF, but god drat if that won't look like a nice bullet point on a quarterly eval."

If there exists letterhead somewhere with your name and "L3 Communications Director of Operations" between 2003 and today, than Iraq was the greatest move by a sitting president since Andrew Jackson. This also mostly applies to anyone with blood ties to Maliki.

Every time I recollect the times I had tears of exhaustion from expelling the previous night's quzi and tabbouleh over a squat hole or over a freshly burned half of a 55-gallon drum, I'm just happy that I haven't been minced by an EFP. Those who spent their deployment by gorging on salsa nights and poetry slams between their long 9-5 workday on FOBs everywhere can at least take solace in the fact that the only thing wasted in Iraq for them is the amount of money spent on bootleg anime.

So yes, absolutely yes, the people bitching about Iraq crumbling should be grateful that they have functioning limbs and a dick, and they should be especially grateful that they managed to bump into their future third wife at a biker bar in between year-long trips to another failed experiment in American democracy.

I watched some vice vid about the Kurds and they had a woman manning a checkpoint. Then some text said she got iced a week later. She seemed nice :(

They seemed pretty chill and cool in general though. Like it goes to show that groups like ISIS and DnD don't get to use oppression as an excuse for bombing cafés and poo poo.
