The bloodshed seems to be halted in Libya today, hooray for the UN no-fly/no-massacre resolution, but some of the other many Arab Uprisings are still going terribly today:
"Syrian security forces dispersed protesters in two towns Friday, state media reported in the first official word of what appeared to be the gravest unrest in years in one of the Mideast's most repressive states." [ ABC News ]
"Yemen security forces and government supporters opened fire on demonstrators in the capital on Friday, killing at least 40 people, according to a doctor at a makeshift hospital near the scene.

And we're in on another war, YAAY.To be fair, the French bombed them first, we just shot cruise missiles. Do we get a triple war score for this?And how many special ops are on the ground, cuz I trust were not just shooting blind, right?Yeah, that would never happen...
You are a wise (old?) man, I have to make sure to renew my shit in a couple years. As for cash, I may need to work on that. I can haz my 401k, like, um now?? Also I just heard that we now have new cruise missiles that can be launched towards an area, circle around, send back pics and then get a final target from the ship. How did I not know this?? Truly an awesome way to wreak havoc on your 'enemy' , the V2 buzzbombs ain't got shit on us!
