I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Is it common to have submarines armed with torpedoes? :unsure:

More common then having torpedoes armed with submarines.

I admit, I'd actually like to see the US kick the Iranian's teeth in.  They've had it coming for 30 years now.

I'm not sure school yard vendettas are the best guide to running a foreign policy in the interest of one's own state.
The basis of most of human history's great wars have been: "those motherfuckers disrespected us and we're gonna go get 'em."
PDH!

World war 2 for sure, also every flame war on languish.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar
