That's the way it is, not the way it ends
I just started after the new year and AMU had some course requirements I had to complete first so I haven't started my paper yet. I have put the program on hold during my deployment. I had been doing some research on the characteristics of successful and unsuccessful counterinsurgency throughout history. I may decide to go with this topic or a variety of it but I am also thinking strongly on the failures of nation building by the west from a military point of view.

And do you plan on focusing on a specific time period to compare the failed/successful counterinsurgency or you want to compare more or less some famous of these moments through history at large? That is an interesting topic indeed, let me know once you start to write it and at some point, I would be interested to read it, military history so to speak has always been one of my lecture's hobby.

I was going to use some examples throughout history.
Jewish revolts in the Roman Empire
American Revolution
Soviet experience in Afghanistan and Chechnya
IRA
Vietnam
Mexican rebels in Chiapas
U.S. in Afghanistan and Iraq
maybe more, maybe less

ha yea, it's been a hell of a year for sure. I know lots of people are going through hardships so I don't like to go on about it. I mean, I'm just a single guy and my troubles are my own, so pale in comparison to those with families and stuff. But yea, I'm trying to look at it as a learning experience, all of it.
And sure Andre, I'll read anything you want to share with me. Would appreciate it.
Damn I've been focusing so much on Miles' decline I had failed to notice how different Youngblood has become lately and the bizarre life he leads.
Child prodigy and gifted youngster. Top national amatuer boxer even interviewed on the telly. Gets into a cool fight with an MMA rival and knocks him out with a spinning punch.
Then this year he's gone mental. Tragic suicide, prison, beating people up and contracting life threatening illnesses. Now involved in some big money poker controversy.
This could be an interesting story to follow. Much less self absorbed than Miles too, for whom 90 percent of his life takes place in his head. Youngblood is living the reckless, dangerous life of a Hollywood film.

You are correct, there is no perfect pollutant.

I agree with Bilbo, strangulation is a tried and tested method and ultimately has few effects on the environment. As a man who really believes in protecting the planet I full advocate strangulation.
Whats the health plan like for serial killing?
