Replying to The United States is not OCCUPYING Iraq.
All this talk of America, the big occupier of Iraq, is getting me down. We don't occupy, USURP yes, but we're not occupying. In fact, we're the dictionary definition of usurp.
u·surp ( P ) Pronunciation Key (y-sûrp, -zûrp) v. u·surped, u·surp·ing, u·surps v. tr.
1. To seize and hold (the power or rights of another, for example) BY FORCE AND WITHOUT LEAGAL ATHORITY. See Synonyms at appropriate.
2. To take over or occupy without right: usurp a neighbor's land.
Besides, our brand of freedom is the best damn flavor any state in the world could hope for.
Long live Usurptopia!

Lets say you have 10 000 people, about the number of drunken rowdy males at a Flames playoff game. Armed with nothing more than semi-auto 22\'s and flaming Alberta whiskey, this rag-tag group could fight a successful guerilla campaign against 150 000 US troops plus tens of thousands of coalition troops, costing $5 bil a MONTH and lasting at least 2 years. Pretty pathetic considering the US spends more on its military per year than every other country COMBINED.
