 With your socialist goverment and extremely high taxes  funding your education, its suprising that there isnt more then 60% of the population who went to college.
 
 but....
 
 that still doesn't make your statements right, its obvious they were wrong just get over your arogrance and anti americanism (which i dont understand why you hate america so much, i think your just trying to deny the fact that canada is america jr)[/quote:8c952]
 
 When has ninty9, or any other Canadian on this fourm said that they hate America?

 Stryker
 Maybe becuase you can only do so much at once? Who's to say we won't do anything about that? We're just going for the bigger threats first.

 I never said Canada had a terrible schooling system, I said YOU should get an education. Kind of proves how blinded and self-centered you are.
 
 You might want to correct yourself on that terriost comment above. Again, it proves how IGNORANT you are to say that terroists are only Taliban and/or Al-Queda. Get out of that igloo and learn a few things, kid.[/quote:b5eff]
 
 Will you shut the fuck up already, no one lives in an Igloo. Generaly Speaking, of course.

you have a good point, if the administration didn't make up shit about Saddam having nuclear bombs ready to bomb us/give to terrorists, we could have approved this whole operation through the UN on the basis of Saddam's human rights violations, but instead Bush screwed the pooch and now we have trouble finding allies to help rebuild and provide peacekeepers.
 
Even if we secure Iraq, Bush will undoubtedly find a way to fuck up (like saying something stupid that will get the Iraqis pissed off at us and start a revolt) |

 [quote="Sgt Stryker":91179][quote="Tool-back":91179]Uhh Ninty9 the "War on Terror" wasn't just the war with Al Queda and Taliban. When Bush gave his speech on the war on terror, he made it very obvious that it would include nations that harbored terrorists.[/quote:91179]
 why aren't we going after the guerillas in the Phillippines and South America? They kidnap US citizens and demand ransom, extortion is a type of terrorism.
 
 What about Aryan Nations and the KKK? Domestic terrorists are just as much a threat, maybe even more so because they live here.[/quote:91179]
 
 because of the clinton era military cutbacks and downsizing that we're paying for right now with 87 billion dollars in increased military spending, our active duty military isnt nearly as large as it once was...most of our military numbers come from reserves and national gaurd units now, we would need something like a draft to fight the war on terrorism effectivly on multiple fronts, thats why we have to do it one country at a time for now.

 It's simple Ninty9... there is no way our military is going to fight the war on terror in 5 different countries. It's not possible right now with the size of our military like Eames said.
 Can you comprehend that, EH?

 Like who else would be in iraq with us? Because last time I checked our REAL allies are already there, you know great britian and the common wealth (excluding canada because of the frenchman leader), countries like poland and romania, etc are also there because they know how precious freedom is, they know what its like to be opressed, and they also know the united states is doing whats right. The French, the Germans, and the Russians would never have went to war with iraq simply because of the amount of money the sadam regime owed them!! They knew that once sadam was gone they would never recieve the millions of dollars sadam owed them and lets not forget they would lose their illeagal lucrative oil trade with iraq which was in direct violation of economic sanctions put on iraq. The real reason France, Germany, and Russia didn't want to topple sadam purely and simply was because of economic reasons and you all know it, their bs excuses about un aproval is just a pathetic excuse to try and cover up their illeagal dealings with iraq. The United states goverment has an obligation to its people now to supress all threats now before they can materialize, this is why we pre-emptivly attacked iraq, and its why we will most likley pre-empmtivly attack other countries in the future, we simply cant afford to sit back and wait for another 9-11 style attack to happen again, before we do take action.

 |  ..well duh innoxx, that convieniently glosses over the fact that "the current situation" means that all attempts  
at re-building the country are being voilently undermined by fundamentalist/al queda forces. eg: the Iraqi people  
want law and order and their own non baa'thist police force, al queda says no you can't have that and we will kill you ourselves if you try.
 
If the US and allies were actually able to reconstruct without being bombed every day, I'm sure  
the Iraqi people would see rapid change for the better, and that 90/10% ratio would be reversed.
 
They could then be left in peace to get on with tearing each others throats 
out over who's a sunni and who's shi'ite, but that's another story. |
