Hobbes

No real surprises here considering the US is holding off paying the *rent*. Question is what happens next?

I hazy on this subject. Hobbes mabye you'll inform me.

I was watching an Uncensored Islamic News channel just by random and some man was saying how we dont hear about uzbekistans popular islamic uprising.

US controls the media aparently.
Uzbekistan is run by a commie dictator.
US dont know who to support,as they are anti muslim... and anti commie.
We hear nothing about this in the news

This true?

Maybe the suffering people of Uzbekistan will be "liberated" from the tyrannical regime that has been oppressing them and their democratic ambitions for years, and they will then be given the chance to take their place amongst the other free nations of the world. Or something.
Or perhaps, as they're already using it as an emergency stop over, Tajikistan will get funding from the States to improve their infrastructure (mentioned as a problem here), and thus making it a more feasible location for a base, in return for letting the Americans stay over for a couple of years.

Well, fairly much so, I believe... Remember the Andizhan massacre? That was started because some businessmen who probably sponsored an Islamic terrorist/freedom fighter group were arrested.
