Kyrgyzstan Sticks it to U.S. Imperialism


According to the NY Times, when Kyrgyzstan's president Kurmanbek Bakiyev announced he planned on closing a U.S. military base critical to NATO's supply lines to Afghanistan, he lifted his fist, turned his hand, and raised his middle finger to U.S. military ambitions. As so-called "Anti-War" president Barack Obama prioritizes invading Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan's decision will be a major impediment to U.S. plans to murder more Afghan civilians. In 2005 Bakiyev claimed that Kyrgyzstan would not be a "place for the fulfillment of someone else's geopolitical interests."

Well, you go honey. Tell those Yankees what you think! And if it saves thousands of impoverished Afghan peaasants, hell, even I'd vote for you! Now, if the other hundreds of countries harboring U.S. bases would shut them down, U.S. military might finally be disrupted.
