Hello, I'm Colin; a writer of novels, a connoisseur of cheeses, a thinker of life and most importantly, a reader of the classics. A diehard romantic who also happens to be hopeless. I write novels, quips and other things; other than that I have no real purpose in life.
With all that’s going on in Afghanistan, it makes you really think about how the United States has protected the world over the years. You know, militarizing radical countries in order to defend them against communism; putting ruthless dictators in power over democratically elected leaders. Our foreign policy is the best!
Now where’s that picture of Kosovo…
You know, one of the biggest reasons the Roman Empire fell was the lack of resources coupled with major over expansion. I feel like someone living in Rome hearing about Scythia with all this Afghanistan stuff popping back up. “Didn’t we conquer them already? Another revolt? Ugh” except now, Obama can’t go all Trajan because Bush did that exact thing and the American public are tired of it xD
