Non-involvement, non-involvement, non-involvement. Just praying America gets the hell out and stays out...we've been over here far too long. Not the same as isolationism. America continues to excert it's influence in the Middle East, it'll end in nothing but bloodshed.

I'm not sure of the details about the death of this boy and rocks....., but I am familiar with many that were at Abu Ghraib during the little known 04' riot. The inmates used rocks and most of the soldiers felt very threatened by it resulting in the use of crowd control measures and eventually live fire. If there is one thing an Arab learns well early in life...it's how to throw a rock.

Yup, true. Isolationism is different from having the foreign policy of a normal country.

They even throw at our passing helicopters. I used to say that if one of them actually happens to hit mine, I'm going to land and offer to become his agent.:D

I guess they should have included "Ducking" in the slinging rocks instruction sessions.

And the terr's have weapons , rockets etc and have created havoc for years. Mind you they never have the guts to stand up and fight..thats why they fire rockets into houses, machinegun schools, bomb marketplaces, strap bombs to children......

It's called "Jordan"
