Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation.

and on DU - seem to buy this mantra.

Btw, there are no Syrian "moderates" to speak of. Arming any rebel factions will result in weapons making their way to ISIS/ISIL, just as arming Afghan rebels in the 1980s helped to create Al Qaeda.

When will ever learn? Never, it seems, so long as the military-industrial complex and their strident cheerleaders in both parties keep calling the shots.

The Scorpion and the Frog

A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream and the scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back.

The frog asks, "How do I know you won't sting me?" The scorpion says, "Because if I do, I will die too."

The frog is satisfied, and they set out, but in midstream,the scorpion stings the frog.

The frog feels the onset of paralysis and starts to sink, knowing they both will drown,
but has just enough time to gasp "Why?"

Replies the scorpion: "Its my nature..."
