That's what happens when you get a former commentator from UFC (Brian Kilmeade - who incidentally also recently claimed he was "traumatized" as a child by I Dream of Genie) to anchor your morning show.

Erm... pretty sure he was talking about attacking government / military vehicles with roadside bombs and landmines "like our Humvees are blowing up", not using car bombs to attack things. Idiotic and hypocritical, but not evil.

Hes talking about arming militants which would be state-sponsored terrorism, as well as blowing up "cars" and let the militants "create havok inside Iran". That doesn't sound like the US attacking their government or military but arming a group to do the fighting for us.
I used to think that it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe. ~Marcus Cole, Babylon 5

The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were and ask "why not?" ~John F Kennedy Jr, 1963

"Havoc" is the word you're searching for, I think; "Havok" is an intentional misspelling for the name of the Marvel Comics character.

More stupid drivel from Fox. Amazing how they always fail to recognize that they're calling for the same things that cause us to label others as evil...

Clearly, Barbara Eden's jubblees much have traumatized him worse than he mentioned. :lol:

Well having just watched the departed, I wonder if Fox is going to suggest the Boston area Irish community for expertise on these kind of hits. I'm sure Rupurt could fork over the money, and than we could see Fox news busted for sponsoring terrorism.

That sounds like that one time when the US armed a bunch of guys to fight the Soviets in Afghanistan...that turned out rather well, didn't it?
